New: Journal of Islamic Art and Architecture

Edinburgh University Press is delighted to launch the Journal of Islamic Art and Architecture with a double issue.

The Journal of Islamic Art and Architecture encourages and promotes the study of art and architecture from across the Islamic world in its widest sense, embracing a broad chronological scope from the 7th to the 19th century.

Robert Hillenbrand, Founding Editor, said: ‘This double issue marks the launch of a major new journal that will build upon the long-established reputation of Edinburgh University Press in the field of Islamic studies, a field that in some senses has become its flagship.’

Chris Grieves, Deputy Head of Editorial - Journals at Edinburgh University Press, said: 'We’re thrilled to be publishing Journal of Islamic Art and Architecture and to start off with such a wonderful double-issue. The journal provides a much needed outlet for some exceptional research and we’re sure that it will become a well-respected and highly valued title by members of the community. A huge thanks to Richard, Robert, Francesca and Yusen for all of the hard work that they’ve put in to get the journal to this stage. We’re looking forward to working with them to continue to grow and develop the journal in the coming years.'

The Journal of Islamic Art and Architecture is fully peer reviewed and will publish two issues per year.
