Hagia Sophia : Sound, Space, and Spirit in Byzantium
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 54.43 $Experiencing the resonant acoustics of the church of Hagia Sophia allowed the Byzantine participants in its liturgical rituals to be filled with the Spirit of God, and even to become his image on earth. Bissera Pentcheva''s vibrant analysis examines how these sung rites combined with the church''s architectural space to make Hagia Sophia a performative place of worship representative of Byzantine religious culture in all its sensory richness.Coupling digital acoustic models and video with a close examination of liturgical texts and melodic structures, Pentcheva applies art-historical, philosophical, archeoacoustical, and anthropological methodologies to provide insight into the complementary ways liturgy and location worked to animate worshippers in Byzantium. Rather than focus on the architectural form of the building, the technology of its construction, or the political ideology of its decoration, Pentcheva delves into the performativity of Hagia Sophia and explains how the "icons of sound" created by the sung liturgy and architectural reverberation formed an aural experience that led to mystical transcendence for worshippers, opening access to the imagined celestial sound of the angelic choirs.Immersive, deeply researched, and beautifully illustrated, this exploration of Hagia Sophia sheds new light on sacred space, iconicity, and religious devotion in Byzantium. Scholars of art and architectural history, religious studies, music and acoustics, and the medieval period will especially appreciate Pentcheva''s field-advancing work.

Hagia Sophia, 1850-1950: Holy Wisdom Modern Monument [first edition]
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 59.00 $Hagia Sophia, the Church of Holy Wisdom, sits majestically atop the plateau that commands the straits separating Europe and Asia. Located near the acropolis of the ancient city of Byzantium, this unparalleled structure has enjoyed an extensive and colorful history, as it has successively been transformed into a cathedral, mosque, monument, and museum. In Hagia Sophia, 1850-1950, Robert S. Nelson explores its many lives.Built from 532 to 537 as the Cathedral of Constantinople, Hagia Sophia was little studied and seldom recognized as a great monument of world art until the nineteenth century, and Nelson examines the causes and consequences of the building's newly elevated status during that time. He chronicles the grand dome's modern history through a vibrant cast of characters—emperors, sultans, critics, poets, archaeologists, architects, philanthropists, and religious congregations—some of whom spent years studying it, others never visiting the building. But as Nelson shows, they all had a hand in the recreation of Hagia Sophia as a modern architectural icon. By many means and for its own purposes, the West has conceptually transformed Hagia Sophia into the international symbol that it is today.While other books have covered the architectural history of the structure, this is the first study to address its status as a modern monument. With his narrative of the building's rebirth, Nelson captures its importance for the diverse communities that shape and find meaning in Hagia Sophia. His book will resonate with cultural, architectural, and art historians as well as with those seeking to acquaint themselves with the modern life of an inspired and inspiring building.

The Hagia Sophia: From the Age of Justinian to the Present
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 6.95 $With its vast scale, immense cost, extraordinary speed of erection, and stunning interior space, the creation of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul between 532-537 is unparalleled in premodern, Western architecture. As such, the achievement begs answers to three important questions: the nature of the theoretical and material resources available to the early designers to achieve this great building; the behaviour over the centuries of its much modified structure under the action of environmental loadings; the ability of the present-day structure to withstand a major earthquake. In this volume, scholars and professionals from different disciplines exchange ideas and new information pertaining to the historical background, physical environment, design, and the state of the Hagia Sophia building structure over time.

Der geometrische Entwurf der Hagia Sophia in Istanbul: Bilder einer Ausstellung
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 41.06 $Die Hagia Sophia in Konstantinopel/Istanbul wurde im Auftrag Kaiser Justinians I. in den Jahren 532-537 von den Architekten Anthemios von Tralles und Isidoros von Milet erbaut und galt schon im 6. Jahrhundert als Achtes Weltwunder. Von den Bauplänen ist nichts erhalten geblieben, und so stellt sich die Frage, wie der Wunderbau entworfen worden ist. Volker Hoffmann und Nikolaos Theocharis haben in mehrjähriger Forschungsarbeit eine Antwort auf diese Frage gesucht. Diese präsentieren sie mit 42 Plakaten erstmals 2005 an einer Ausstellung in Istanbul einem breiteren Publikum. Sie belegen, dass die Architekten von einer einzigen Entwurfsfigur (die zugleich «Weltmodell» ist) ausgegangen sind: von einem Quadrat mit einem In- und Umkreis. Daraus wurden streng geometrisch drei weitere Entwurfsfiguren entwickelt und aus ihnen – wiederum konsequent geometrisch – sowohl der Grundriss als auch der Aufriss des Kirchenbaus gewonnen. Neben der Rekonstruktion des Entwurfsverfahrens werden neue Einsichten in das konstruktive Denken der Architekten, die Veränderung des Bauwerkes nach 558, die griechische Mathematik und in das Zusammenspiel mit der Kosmologie mitgeteilt. Wie es scheint, symbolisiert der geometrische Entwurf zudem die Herrschaftsideologie jener Zeit, nach der die gottgegebene weltliche und geistliche Herrschaft des Kaisers und des Patriarchen immer von neuem zur Übereinstimmung gebracht werden musste.
