Abstract

Koca Sinan Pasha Mosque is one of the oldest classical mosques built in Kosova during the reign of the Ottoman Empire (1389-1912). The mosque bore the name of its donor and was completed in 1594/95. It is located in a small town in the southern part of the country, in Kaçanik. Regarding its compositional scheme, the monument belongs to the examples of Ottoman-style mosques in the Balkans with local elements. Its compositional scheme comprises a prayer hall, portico, and a minaret. The paper focuses on a brief history of the Koca Sinan Pasha, the history of the mosque, architecture, pictorial and sculptural decorations, current condition, and the monument's surroundings. By doing so, the paper helps identify the challenges that the mosque faced during its existence, as well as changes in the structure of the building and its decorations that occurred with time. The study relies on the existing monument as the primary source of information. However, the documentation of the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments of Kosova and the relevant literature that directly or indirectly deals with the issue in question has also been used. The study is accompanied by architectural visualization and photographs of the mosque's exterior and interior. The Paper aims to help study, promote and display the mosque's value to a wider audience

科索沃卡帕拉尼克的科卡希南帕夏清真寺的建筑研究

科卡希南帕夏清真寺是奥斯曼帝国统治时期(1389-1912)在科索沃建造的最古老的古典清真寺之一。这座清真寺以捐赠者的名字命名，于1594/95年完工。它位于该国南部的卡帕拉尼克的一个小镇上。就其构成方案而言，该纪念碑属于巴尔干地区奥斯曼风格清真寺的典范，具有当地元素。它的结构方案包括一个祈祷大厅、一个门廊和一个尖塔。本文重点介绍了科卡希南帕夏的简史、清真寺的历史、建筑、绘画和雕塑装饰、现状以及纪念碑的周围环境。通过这样做，本文有助于确定清真寺在其存在期间所面临的挑战，以及随着时间的推移，建筑结构和装饰的变化。这项研究依靠现存的纪念碑作为主要的信息来源。但是，也使用了保护科索沃文化古迹研究所的文件和直接或间接处理有关问题的有关文献。该研究伴随着建筑可视化和清真寺外部和内部的照片。该报旨在帮助研究、推广和向更广泛的受众展示清真寺的价值

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Islamic Architecture (IJIA) publishes bi-annually, peer-reviewed articles on the urban design and planning, architecture and landscape architecture of the historic Islamic world, encompassing the Middle East and parts of Africa and Asia, but also the more recent geographies of Islam in its global dimensions. The main emphasis is on the detailed analysis of the practical, historical and theoretical aspects of architecture, with a focus on both design and its reception. The journal also aims to encourage dialogue and discussion between practitioners and scholars. Articles that bridge the academic-practitioner divide are highly encouraged. While the main focus is on architecture, papers that explore architecture from other disciplinary perspectives, such as art, history, archaeology, anthropology, culture, spirituality, religion and economics are also welcome. The journal is specifically interested in contemporary architecture and urban design in relation to social and cultural history, geography, politics, aesthetics, technology and conservation. Spanning across cultures and disciplines, IJIA seeks to analyse and explain issues related to the built environment throughout the regions covered. The audience of this journal includes both practitioners and scholars. The journal publishes both online and in print. The first issue was published in January 2012.
