Description

Fine English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Turkish. [v], 85 p., b/w ills. Divrigi. Bir cami ve Dar'üs-sifa ile karsilasmalar. Translated by Ahmet Mumcu. Divrigi. Turkish Edition of Wöhrlin's 'Unterwegs zur türkischen Mystik in Stein'. Since the medieval building complex consisting of the Friday mosque and the psychiatric hospital was declared World Cultural Heritage Site in 1986 the small provincial town of Divrigi, hidden in the mountains of East Taurus, has become a popular destination for many tourists. While the peculiar architectural art of this historic building is rather considered an incomprehensible curiosity by most visitors, it became a personal object of research for the author as he was certain that there had to be an access to this powerful and apparently exotic imagery that was well worth being deciphered in order to gain a new and expanded view of Islamic mysticism.
