Recenzii

'As art history goes global, this book should be required reading for anyone studying Islamic architecture, self-fashioning, visual culture, and world-making. Michelle Apotsos presents diverse case studies in Africa, ranging widely across time, space and provocative conceptual terrain-from intersectionality to cyberpilgrimage. Such forward-thinking scholarship will surely transform collective understanding.' Holly Edwards, Williams College
'In this groundbreaking study-the first monograph to consider the mosque in contemporary Africa - Michelle Apotsos analyzes the social, political and cultural dynamics that have influenced the articulation of sacred space in Muslim communities on the continent. It is a welcome addition to the literature dealing with the visual cultures of Islam in Africa.' Raymond Silverman, University of Michigan
