Quantifying the Qurʾan
Abstract
Focusing on a single Qurʾan manuscript produced in twelfth-century Hamadan, Iran, this essay presents digital techniques I explored in a collaborative seminar taught by Renata Holod and Yael Rice. The manuscript also provides an opportunity to reflect on methodological gaps and blindspots within the emerging sub-field of digital art history, and new ways of thinking about individual and collective style.
