Omschrijving
What does it mean to see time passing? This volume argues that the perception of time is inseparable from acts of seeing and the cultural frameworks that direct the gaze. While much has been written on Islamic notions of time or vision separately, their intersection has rarely been explored. Bringing together case studies from Qur anic studies, law, theology, poetry, architecture, and museology, the volume opens a new field of inquiry into the visual construction of temporality in Islamic thought and expression. It traces how sight shapes and is shaped by the experience of time-from the observation of celestial motion in early law (Hentschel) and Ibn Qutayba's epistemology (Lahav), to dreams that collapse temporal boundaries (Amir) and the Qur an's creation of memory through vision (Koloska). Further chapters explore poetic duration (Aweida), architectural means to engage cyclical time and reflect eternity (Kol), and the museum as a modern temporal agent (Tütüncü Çaglar). A concluding philosophical dialogue (Shardlow) activates Islamic and Western perspectives together, opening a new field for studying how vision makes time are deeply related. The volume addresses scholars of Islamic studies, philosophy, art history, and theology interested in perception, temporality, and comparative thought.
