Publications
The Trust has funded a wide range of publications covering aspects of Islamic art and architecture and Muslim – Christian relations.
The keystone of the publications programme has been a trilogy on the Islamic heritage of Jerusalem produced over the last 25 years. The third and final volume ‘ Ayyubid Jerusalem: The Holy City in Context 1187 - 1250’ edited by Robert Hillenbrand and Sylvia Auld, was published in June 2009. With the two already published volumes ‘Mamluk Jerusalem’ (1987) and ‘Ottoman Jerusalem’ (2000) the series provides a major study of the architecture of Muslim Jerusalem by leading international scholars.
