2014New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (32 x 25 cm). English Edition. 241, [1] p., color ills. The arms of the sultans. The arms collection of Topkapi Palace. Translated by Alev (Kerimoglu) Bulut. "Weapon is a device that was developed by the mankind in the ancient ages for protection against the events of nature and enemies. The arms that were used for the functions of drilling, cutting, defense, and the firing function to be acquired later, were accepted as works of art owing to the mastery and craftsmanship skills that they display. The present work title The arms of the sultans. The arms collection of Topkapi Palace was prepared for the purpose of presenting to the readers The Arms of Collection of the Topkapi Palace Museum, where some of the rarest examples of these works of art are on display, as a whole along with an analysis of its fundamental attributes". Covering 1,300 years and consisting of 52,000 weapons of Arab, Umayyad, Abbasid, Mamluk, Persian, Turkish, Crimean Tartar, Indian, European, and Japanese origin, the Topkapi Palace Museum's weaponry collection is also among the world's premier weapons collections. The collection is made up in part of weapons transferred from the cebehâne and those used by the palace guards; however, the collection's most noteworthy section consists of those weapons ordered by the sultan personally or specially made as gifts for him, which weapons are a part of the palace's private collection. This collection includes weaponry owned by such sultans as Mehmed II, Bayezid II, Selim the Grim, Suleiman the Magnificent, Selim II, Mehmed II, and Ahmed I, as well as the weapons of such high-level dignitaries as grand viziers, pashas, and palace chamberlains; all of these weapons are eye-catching with their fine craftsmanship and decorations. An additional factor that contributed to the diversification of the collection's highly artistic weaponry was the tradition of bringing to the palace the weapons of important figures that were obtained through plunder.

Best.-Nr. 13981451Milan: Editions 5 continents, 2019 in-4 (24,5 x 34 cm), 192 pages, 148 illustrations en couleurs. Reliure d'éd., comme neuf. Les tablettes coraniques appelées allo kafii gida, conservées par l'ethnie des hausa qui peuplent le nord du Nigeria, sont marquées du sceau du secret. Les hausa ont peur de révéler à des étrangers les formules de bon augure qui ornent ces objets. Et ils refusent aussi de prendre le risque d'exposer des représentations d'êtres humains et d'animaux dans un contexte islamique iconoclaste. Aujourd'hui encore, l'islam radical punit sévèrement la possession d'allo kafii gida par des sanctions pouvant aller jusqu'à l'exécution capitale. Si elles n'avaient pas été sauvées au fil du temps, toutes les tablettes de ce livre auraient été vouées à la destruction par les fondamentalistes musulmans. Les auteurs des décorations qui ornent les tablettes coraniques ne sont pas de simples illustrateurs, ce sont de véritables conteurs : ils ont peint sur ces planches de bois les récits qui reflètent la vision cosmique de leur société. A travers la création artistique, ils ont incorporé des idées étrangères et lointaines dans le système de pensée des hausa, faisant de ces allo kafii gida de véritables capsules cosmologiques sur bois. Dans ce contexte difficile, on peut qualifier les propriétaires de ces oeuvres d'art de "conservateurs ", car ces tablettes secrètes, bien que liées à la religion musulmane, témoignent de la cosmologie hausa. Les objets dont les photographies illustrent cet ouvrage, uniques dans le domaine des arts extraeuropéens, appartiennent à une collection privée fruit de plus de vingt années de recherches
