The talk focuses on how the popular visuality around the shrine has changed over time in response to the changes brought about by urbanization, movement of pilgrims, new technology, and competition from the more orthodox tableeghi and Wahhabi ideologues in the vicinity. This work-in-progress is part of a research and documentation project tracing the transcultural flows between Europe and Asia in Muslim popular iconography, under the Cluster of Excellence &lsquo;Asia and Europe in a Global Context: Shifting Asymmetries in Cultural Flows&rsquo;, University of Heidelberg, Germany.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Goethe-Institut/Max Mueller Bhawan</span></span><br /> <span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Tel.+91-11-2332 9506<br /> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.goethe.de/newdelhi">http://www.goethe.de/newdelhi</a><br /> Email: prog.mmb@delhi.goethe.org<br /> <br /> Also see:<br /> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.asia-europe.uni-heidelberg.de/en/research/heidelberg-research-architecture/hra-projects/satellites-of-networks.html">http://www.asia-europe.uni-heidelberg.de/en/research/heidelberg-research-architecture/hra-projects/satellites-of-networks.html</a></span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table></td></tr></table><table style="width:850px"><tr><td><a href="../../authors/Yousuf_Saeed.html" class="navigation-a" style="color:#000000;">About the Author </a> </td><td align="right"><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;color:#000000;">Select Page</span><select id="cmbPages" class="text-box" onchange="javascript:openPage();"> <option value="1">1</option></select> <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">function openPage(){ var i = document.getElementById('cmbPages').value; var path =window.location.pathname.substring(0,window.location.pathname.lastIndexOf('/')); if(i== 1) window.location.href = path + "/index.html"; else window.location.href = path + "/index_" + (i-1) +".html"; } var path =window.location.pathname.substring(window.location.pathname.lastIndexOf('/')+1); if (path.indexOf('_') == -1) document.getElementById('cmbPages').value=1; else {path = path.substring(path.lastIndexOf('_')+1); document.getElementById('cmbPages').value=parseInt(path)+1;} </script></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2"><form id="form1" method="post" action="../../../feedback.aspx"><table width="850px" style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;color:#000000;"><tr><td colspan="2" style="font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;font-family:Verdana;">Add Your Comments</td></tr><tr><td colspan="2"> <a href="../../../comments.aspx?EId=91" class="navigation-a" style="color:#000000;"> Read the previous comments</a> <tr> <td colspan="2">You can leave your comments about this essay in the box below, along with your details.
