Recenzii
"This is an excellent and ground-breaking study of Muslim communal headstones in Bosnia-Herzegovina over the past 500 years. (...) Carved in Stone, Etched in Memory is a bold and fascinating book, and serves as an essential guide for a neglected topic. Buturovic writes with great style, flair and enthusiasm on a subject that could easily have been grim, maudlin or simply unattractive. (...) Extensively illustrated with excellent visual images, this book will appeal most to graduate students and anyone with an academic interest in Islam, Bosnia, Ottoman civilization and history, and the memorialization of the dead in general. Buturovic offers a sophisticated analysis of events that can easily be used as a model to study other societies."

Descriere
Gravestones are seen as cultural spaces that inscribe memory, history, and heritage in addition to being texts that display first-hand information about the deceased. This book underscores the importance of material culture, specifically gravestones, funerary inscriptions and images, in tracing and understanding more subtle changes in Bosnia’s religious landscape and the complex cultural shifts and exchange between Christianity and Islam in this area. Drawing upon several disciplinary methods, the book has much to offer anyone looking for a better understanding of the intersection of Christianity and Islam, as well as those with an interest in death studies.
