Description

Explore the structural logic of the premodern Arab-Muslim city through this academic study of urban space. This book provides a deep look at the medina, specifically focusing on the city of Fez to understand how urban environments function within Islamic culture. By analyzing the concept of the wall, the text offers a new way to look at how space is organized and understood in Middle Eastern history. Using "The Book of Walls," a historical discourse on Islamic law, the author examines the meaning of physical boundaries and their impact on urban life. This work moves beyond traditional views of Islamic architecture, treating space as a primary category for critical analysis. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the intersection of architecture, law, and urban development in the Middle East.
