Abstract: | "In Islamic lands during the medieval era, textiles enhanced with Arabic inscriptions-woven, embroidered, or painted-were highly prized, connecting all who produced, owned, or viewed them in a web of communication based on the written word. Those with inscriptions controlled by government officials were known as tiraz textiles, valued for how they proclaimed their owners' membership in the ruling elite. Created in the centuries following the Arab Muslim conquest of Egypt in 641, and originating not only in Egypt but also in Iran, Iraq, and Yemen, inscribed textiles were a visual form of communication in a society that was ethnically, linguistically, and religiously diverse. Social Fabrics traces the structure and stratification of Egyptian society during a transformative period to reveal a story as interwoven and complex as the inscriptions, ornament, and weave structures of these delicate objects. Designed to be a foundational introduction to the topic, the catalogue offers essays on the political and economic history of Egypt at the time, the purpose, meaning, and materiality of tiraz, and the history of collecting these objects in U.S. institutions. The nearly 40 illustrated catalogue entries invite readers to imagine what these textiles, produced so long ago, might still have to say about the ways in which we order society and announce our social connections"-- |
