Despite its extraordinary richness, Islamic architecture has rarely been studied for its conceptual and symbolic significance. In the Sense of Unity, a handsomely illustrated volume and the first extended work of its kind, Nader Ardalan and Laleh Bakhtiar examine the architecture of Persia as a manifestation of Islamic tradition and demonstrate the synthesis of traditional Persian thought and form. The most fundamental principle of Sufism, the inner, esoteric dimension of Islam, is that of unity in multiplicity. This view sees in every aspect of reality a reflection of a transcendent source which is given symbolic expression through all of man's activities, most directly and importantly through his works of art. The authors of The Sense of Unity show how all the elements of the Islamic architecture of Persia from the simplest architectural unit to a complex urban environment are woven around this central doctrine and thus are best understood as multiple manifestations of unity. The Sense of Unity is illustrated with photographs, drawing, charts, and tables which are an integral part of its argument and which exemplify, in abundant and striking detail, the principles discussed in the text. Presenting to the Western reader for the first time the insights of the Iranian cultural tradition, the book also offers a stimulating new way of thinking about man and his relationship to his milieu.… (mehr)

A pesar de su extraordinaria riqueza, la arquitectura islámica rara vez se ha estudiado por su significado conceptual y simbólico. En el Sentido de la Unidad, un volumen bellamente ilustrado y la primera obra extendida de su tipo, Nader Ardalan y Laleh Bakhtiar examinan la arquitectura de Persia como una manifestación de la tradición islámica y demuestran la síntesis del pensamiento y la forma persas tradicionales. El principio más fundamental del sufismo, la dimensión interna y esotérica del Islam, es el de la unidad en la multiplicidad. Esta visión ve en cada aspecto de la realidad un reflejo de una fuente trascendente a la que se le da una expresión simbólica a través de todas las actividades del hombre, más directa e importante a través de sus obras de arte. Los autores de The Sense of Unity muestran cómo todos los elementos de la arquitectura islámica de Persia, desde la unidad arquitectónica más simple hasta un entorno urbano complejo, se entrelazan en torno a esta doctrina central y, por lo tanto, se entienden mejor como múltiples manifestaciones de unidad. El Sentido de la Unidad se ilustra con fotografías, dibujos, cuadros y tablas que forman parte integral de su argumento y que ejemplifican, con abundante y sorprendente detalle, los principios que se analizan en el texto. Al presentar al lector occidental por primera vez los conocimientos de la tradición cultural iraní­, el libro también ofrece una nueva forma de pensar sobre el hombre y su relación con su entorno. -
