چکیده مقاله
The book Palace Gardens in Lower Mesopotamia by Safa Mahmoudian (Edinburgh University Press, 2024), a landscape historian and architect, reassesses Abbasid palace gardens (749–1058 CE) using unpublished archaeological records, aerial imagery, and textual sources. By shifting focus away from later Persianate and Mughal landscapes, Mahmoudian challenges claims of Persian or Islamic garden continuity, offering a regionally grounded view of early Islamic design. Structured into five thematic chapters, the book reconstructs overlooked aspects of Abbasid garden planning—water systems, flora and fauna, architectural features, and throne halls—addressing a key historiographical gap.
