In the past few years we have become painfully aware of the economic clout of the Near and Middle East and the political muscle connected to it. And yet our knowledge of these countries and the complex forces which determine their character has lagged woefully behind the attention we now lavish on them. The familiar stereotypes, the bazars, coffee houses, camel caravans and bedouin tents, are no longer valid. In their place we see industrial complexes, reclamation projects, irrigation systems and tourism. The old ways are being sifted through the newly awakened nationalism and the realities of contemporary civilization. Some are discarded while others come through the process unscathed to be nurtured and fostered in their own unique ways. To help supply needed information about this area which now commands our attention, scholars of various faculties at the University of Tübingen decided to pool their talents and diverse disciplines. Thus the idea was born to draft an atlas of the Near and Middle East wherein the latest research and cartographic techniques would be employed to present in a concise and lucid form the results of their separate efforts. The Tübinger Atlas des Vorderen Orients (TAVO) as the project came to be called will cover the countries from Turkey to Yemen, from Afghanistan to the Sudan, and the countries in between, i. e. Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, the Gulf States,Saudi Arabia,Egypt and in certain cases Ethiopia and individual Maghreb states. In order to facilitate the ordered presentation of the contemporary and historical material,two parts, A and B, are planned. Part A covering the contemporary situation will be divided into 10 sections, e. g. orohydrography, geomorphology, climate, flora, demography, commerce and communications. Part B, dedicated to the historical dimension of the Near and Middle East, has been intentionally designed to control diachronistic depth (from the paleolithic age to the present) without losing synchronistic breadth. Here, as in Part A, 10 sections are planned, arranged however chranologically rather than thematically, wherein each section will cover one of the main divisions of Near Eastern history. 01 01 74 Nomad Tent Types in the Middle East 1 A01 16 0000000385970200 25 1052701906 21 0009-0005-7909-527X Peter Andrews Andrews, Peter Peter Andrews 01 eng 00 782 03 94 144 Tafeln mit Zeichnungen 01 94 26 2.0 1662 93 1.4 RGX 94 1.4 1FB 20 Außereuropäische Geschichte; Geographie; Geschichte; Kurdistan; Nomaden; Türkei; Völkerkunde; Volkskunde; Vorderer Orient. allgemein; Zelt 03 00 This is the first book to attempt a comprehensice treatment of the wide variety of nomad tents still in use in the Middle East: it is both architectural and ethnographical. It draws primarily on the author’s own extensive fieldwork sind 1967, providing largely first-hand information on a fascinating but badly-neglected area of architecture. He began the task of recording these traditions with a sense of urgency, as they seemed threatened with imminent extinction. The survey was therefore made in sufficient detail to allow the tents to be reconstructed. Changes over the last thirty years have in fact led to reductions in the number of nomads, severe weakening of their economy, the intrusion of new materials, and the adoption of mechanised ransport; some, but not all, of the types studied have indeed disappeared. Information on areas not visited by the author has been contributed by ethnologist colleagues, who share his admiration for a closeness of fit between the rigorous constraints of nomadic life and a response arrived at through more than a millenium of experience and craftmanship.<br/>Throughout, the work emphasises the ethnological context in which these dwellings are used. Each type is first located as exactly as possible, named, and given a short historical background; its general characteristics are summarised, and it is considered in relation to other, comparable types. Its structure and covering are then described in full detail, together with the processes of manufacture, maintenance, operation, transport, and the procedures followed for pitching and striking. Variations in the plan and internal arrangements are discussed in relation to ownership and residence, and the principal moments in the life cycle of the inhabitants, at marriage, the inauguration of the household, the birth of a son, and inheritance. Local terms are given for the parts and processes. Camping patterns, migrations and camp planning are explained, and details of the climate of the areas concerned. Each tent is represented in measured drawings or sketches with photographs.<br/>The classification in the book relates to the map of nomadic tent types already published by the author (TAVO A IX 5, Reichert 1990), grouping the tents according to structural type and ethnic group; 56 types are described, together with some related hut types. These two volumes, on tents with rigid, self-supporting frames, are the first part of the work. The second part, also in two volumes, and now being prepared, will deal with the black tension-tents.<br/>The author, a qualified architect, took his doctorate at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, in 1980. He has been working at the Institute for Ethnology, Cologne University, since 1981, and with the Central Asian Seminar, University of Bonn, since 1992. He held the Endowed Professorship for Islamic Art and Archaeology at the University of Bamberg in 1990-91. 01 00 03 02 01 D502 02 800 03 571 07 93400 https://medialibrary.reichert-verlag.de/media/original/9783882268904.jpg Reichert Verlag 01 04 15275 06 4399901869295 23 DE161050927 25 1065107307 Dr. Ludwig Reichert Verlag Inhaberin Ursula Reichert 01 https://reichert-verlag.de 02 https://reichert-verlag.de/9783882268904_nomad_tent_types_in_the_middle_east-detail/ 03 https://medialibrary.reichert-verlag.de Wiesbaden DE 10 04 15275 06 4399901869295 23 DE161050927 25 1065107307 Dr. Ludwig Reichert Verlag Inhaberin Ursula Reichert Ursula Reichert +496119465911 info@reichert-verlag.de Tauernstraße 11 Wiesbaden 65199 DE 04 01 19961125 11 1997 27 15 9783752013184 ED 04 15 9783882269581 CC 04 15 9783752004380 EC 00 23 DE146124076 Brockhaus Kommissionsgeschäft GmbH 01 https://www.brocom.de 20 02 02 132.00 01 R 7.00 EUR DE 02 02 135.70 01 R 10.00 EUR AT 02 02 198.00 USD US
