Slavery, Gender, and the Image in medieval islam
Presented by: Dr. Lamia Balafrej
Associate Professor, Arts of the Islamic World, University of California Los Angles
Images of female slaves abound in medieval Islamic art, whether in manuscript painting
or on portable objects; they depict servants, musicians, dancers, or concubines. Free
women, by contrast, were seldom represented, a discrepancy that has received little
scholarly attention. Why this emphasis on the enslaved in medieval Islamic art, and
what was unfree women's role in visual representation?
