수업 소개
Gardens have an important traditional role throughout the history of Islam. In this one-time course, we will explore specific examples of gardens noted not only for their beauty and exquisite design, but also for the unique role they played in power dynamics throughout history. We will begin with a brief sketch of the political dynamics specific to ancient Islam, then move onto where and how gardens enter into Islamic culture and tradition. The second portion of class will consist of an outline of particularly important, impressive, and otherwise breathtaking gardens and how they were used strategically throughout Islamic history. We will discuss the design of the garden at Pasargadae, Agdal gardens of Marrakech, the extensive history of Safavid dynasty gardens, and finish with the legendary gardens of the Emperor Babur. Students will leave this class with a greater appreciation of the purposeful craftsmanship and inherent meaning of gardens in ancient Islam.

교사 전문성 및 자격증
I have specialized in international politics, history, and languages, with a focus on Semitic languages, Middle Eastern culture, and Islamic history since my undergraduate studies in 2001. My undergraduate degree was in international politics, with a focus on diplomacy, and my senior project was a debate conducted in Hebrew encouraging humanitarian attention for Arab-speaking polities. In my graduate work at Oxford University with a focus on ancient history, I recently researched and presented on political motivations and creative forces behind well-known gardens in ancient Islam in 2019. I continue to research and to seek out formal professional development regarding the study of ancient Islam through various courses of study, most recently with a course providing an overview of perspectives on Islamic Art and Architecture at Oxford University in 2022.
