The volume unites case studies, often of little-known material, by an international set of  specialists, and is prefaced by four introductory essays that provide broad overviews of diagrammatic  traditions in these regions in addition to considering the theoretical dimensions of diagramming. Among  the historical disciplines whose use of diagrams is explored are philosophy, theology, mysticism, music,  medicine, mathematics, astronomy, and cosmology. Despite the sheer variety, ingenuity, and visual  inventiveness of diagrams from the premodern world, in conception and practical use they often share  many similarities, both in construction and application. Diagrams prove to be an essential part of the  fabric of premodern intellectual, scientific, religious, artistic, and artisanal life  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish  amedieval diagrams; Byzantium; Islamic world; Latin-West  athema EDItEUR::N History and Archaeology::NH History1 aHamburger, Jeffrey F.4oth1 aRoxburgh, David J.4edt1 aRoxburgh, David J.4oth1 aSafran, Linda4edt1 aSafran, Linda4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/9598270zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c93236d93236
