Exposed to various regional styles of islamic art and architecture from c. 950-1500 ad/ce. your basic discussion questions are: how would you characterize the regional styles of this time period? what are the basic differences between, for example, islamic art and architecture produced in the western lands of the islamic world and that produced in the eastern islamic world?

In a brief characterization of Islamic art form this time and culture, between the X and XVI centuries, we can see, inside their temples, the geometric as a predominant form of image. Seeing the word, commonly figure inside the mosques - the Islamic temple - we can say the word itself is part of image concept, so the geometrical art and the word are the two major characteristics in Islamic art. The architecture differences between the western and eastern land of Islamic Empire, that occupied the Iberian Peninsula form the year of 711 to 1492, can be found in the processes of resignification of the catholic churches in to mosques. These processes were well knew in this period and was practiced for the Catholic Church as we can see in Beda discussions about the paganism.

it refers to race, i am pretty sure this was a popular term in nazi germany or something.
