Zusammenfassung:"The powerful and culturally prolific Seljuqs--an empire whose reach extended from Central Asia to the eastern Mediterranean--dominated the Islamic world from the eleventh to the fourteenth century. The age of the Seljuqs was one that celebrated magnificence, in this world and the celestial realm.
