Armenia – Georgia – Islam A Need to Break Taboos in the Study of Medieval Architecture
Patrick Donabédian · 2020
Catalogue summary
This architectural-history chapter calls for comparative study of Armenian, Georgian, Seljuk, and Mongol artistic exchange, identifying nationalism and weak scholarly communication as barriers.
Why this matters
The work provides a methodological lens for studying connected medieval traditions without isolating Armenian architecture from neighboring Christian and Islamic visual cultures.
