CONTENTS

Message from the Editor: Middle East and Islamic Studies are where it all began when our Company was founded in 1983. For over a generation we have been publishing the most topical debates and vital new research on these rapidly changing areas. Our list brings together general and academic books on the history, politics and cultures of this fascinating and varied region, combining the latest critical thought with accessible introductions for a wider audience. As a result, we are considered the foremost publisher on these subjects. We cover the area loosely termed ‘the Middle East’, but also explore the wider Islamic World from the villages of Indonesia to the banlieue of Paris. Our numerous publications on Sunni, Shi‘i, Ismaili and Sufi traditions reflect our deep commitment to an exploration of the Muslim experience.We welcome any opportunity to consider books on this ever more complex area of study.

POLITICS & CURRENT AFFAIRS

ARAB HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY

UNCOMMON GROUNDS

New Media and Critical Practices in North Africa and the Middle East Anthony Downey (Ed), Sotheby’s Institute of Art

The Primacy of Empowerment Bahgat Korany (Ed)

In this book, academics, writers, artists, curators, activists and film-makers critically explore the ways in which visual culture has developed new media across North Africa and the Middle East. Examining the opportunities presented by the new, relatively unregulated content online, these writers consider the prominent role that it has come to play in the Arab world today. Featuring critical analyses and original artists’ inserts, this is the first book to explore the degree to which the grassroots popularity of social media has been co-opted into the media’s characterisation of ‘revolution’.

ARAB MEDIA MOGULS Naomi Sakr, University of Westminster, Jakob Skovgaard-Petersen and Donatella Della Ratta, both at Copenhagen University (Eds) NEW

Transformations in the Arab media landscape are a key element in the regional dynamics of political change. Where do the private owners of Arab media outlets stand on the scene? What part, if any, have they played in weakening dictatorships, countering sectarianism and political polarisation, and reforming business practices in the Arab world? Arab Media Moguls charts the rise of some leading investors and entrepreneurs in Arab media, examining their motives, management styles, financial performance and links to political power. Responding critically to scholarship on Western moguls, this book uncovers the realities of risk and success for Arab media potentates and billionaires.

FOREIGN POLICY IN IRAN AND SAUDI ARABIA

GENERATION M New Muslims, New Style Shelina Janmohamed NEW

The Arab spring – though in many ways thwarted – has nevertheless raised the prospect of a segment of Islamic societies which has an eye on the future of the Muslim world.

This new generation of Muslims are a tech-savvy, self-empowered, youthful group who believe that their identity encompasses both faith and modernity. For these Muslims, their faith affects everything, informing the way they consume, interact, work, and spend their leisure time. Janmohamed explores this growing cultural phenomenon, at a time where understanding the mindset of Muslim youths, and what drives them, is critical. Exploring fashion magazines, to social networking and everyday consumer choices, this book shows how these young Muslims are not only adapting to Western consumerism, but reclaiming it as their own. Based on groundbreaking research undertaken by Ogilvy Noor, the world’s first bespoke global Islamic branding practice, Janmohamed provides a unique and timely insight into the lives of the contemporary, global Muslim population.

IN SEARCH OF KINGS AND CONQUERORS

Although best known for her desert travels and her part in the creation of the modern state of Iraq, Gertrude Bell also made a significant contribution to the field of archaeology. At the height of her career, Bell retraced the steps of the ancient rulers, who left markers of their presence with castles, palaces, mosques, tombs and temples. Among the many sites she visited were Ephesus and Carchemish in modern-day Turkey as well as Babylon and Najaf within the borders of modern Iraq. Cooper explores Bell’s achievements, emphasizing the tenacious, inquisitive side of her personality, the breadth of her knowledge and her overall contribution to the archaeology of the Middle East. Featuring many of Bell’s own photographs, this is a unique portrait of a remarkable life.

Theology, Politics and the Public in Safavid Persia Rosemary Stanfield-Johnson, University of

Minnesota Duluth NEW When the Safavids imposed Shi’i Islam as the established faith of Iran, they compelled their subjects to curse ritually the first three (Sunni) caliphs in street and square – or face decapitation. Stanfield-Johnson demonstrates that in a largely oral society both the royal court and the emerging Shi’i religious establishment understood that controlling the medium meant controlling the message, and therefore society itself.

HAFIZ AND HIS CONTEMPORARIES A Study of Fourteenth-century Persian Lyric Poetry Dominic Brookshaw, University of Oxford NEW Hafiz of Shiraz has long been celebrated by many as one of the greatest Persian poets. During the fourteenth century he was master of the Persian ‘ghazal’ – the preeminent genre of love poetry in the Iranian world in its day.

Brookshaw places Hafiz into a broader literary context by comparing his poetry with his two most important contemporaries: ‘Ubayd-i Zakani and the poet-princess, Jahan-Malik Khatun. This detailed comparison, including many previously-untranslated ‘ghazals’, gives a true picture of the distinct and innovative nature of Hafiz’s poetry to emerge.

CONTROLLING IRAN

IRAN AND THE WORLD IN THE SAFAVID AGE

The Struggle for Power in the Islamic Republic Siavush Randjbar-Daemi University of Manchester

NEW

Willem Floor and Edmund Herzig (Eds) Both at University of Oxford NEW IN PAPERBACK

The Safavid era in Iran is known for its wealth of contributions to Persian culture and to the arts of the Islamic world, as well as its robust military encounters with its Ottoman and Mughal neighbours.

But, with the exception of diplomatic and commercial contacts in the Western European world, little is known about the Safavids’ foreign relations. This book challenges the long-held notion that, with the adoption of Shi’ism, Iranians retreated into relative isolation, suggesting rather that they engaged with the world in unprecedented ways. With contributions from leading authorities, this groundbreaking book explores Iran’s relations with other countries and cultures and expands our understanding of this pivotal period.

THE LITERATURE OF THE IRANIAN DIASPORA

Meaning and Identity since the Islamic Revolution Sanaz Fotouhi, University of New South Wales

NEW

The 1979 Revolution in Iran caused the migration of millions of Iranians, many of whom wrote of their experiences. Fotouhi traces the origins of this body of diasporic Iranian literature, and uses these origins to examine the socio-political position and historical context from which they emerged, and how it maintains and negotiates individual and communal identities and reflects socio-political realities today.

From early disputes over border issues to the Iran-Iraq war of 1980-88, and from later antagonisms between Iran and Saudi Arabia to the current negotiations concerning nuclear weaponry, Syria and other factors, Arab-Iranian relations often hold the key to understanding the conflicts that occur throughout the region. This book explores a variety of aspects which influence the economic, political, educational and strategic relations between Iran and the Arab world.

It provides an account of both the historical ties between the two as well as issues which impact current states of mutual awareness. By looking at border and territorial disputes as well as the ways in which issues such as the Palestinian or Kurdish questions are approached, this book offers a comprehensive examination of a vital component of international relations and diplomacy throughout the region.

Jews have played an integral role in the history of Iran for over 2700 years. Often seen as a passive minority group, and marginalized by the Zoroastrian and succeeding Muslim hegemony, they are are instead portrayed in this book as having had an active role in the development of Iranian history, society, and culture. Examining ancient texts, objects, and art, this book offers in-depth analysis of the material and visual culture of this community.

NEW IN PAPERBACK

Harvard University

Yezidism is a fascinating part of the rich cultural mosaic of the Middle East. The Yezidi faith emerged for the first time in the twelfth century in the Kurdish mountains of northern Iraq. The religion, notorious for its associations with ‘devil worship’, is in fact an intricate syncretic system of belief, incorporating elements from proto-IndoEuropean religions, early Iranian faiths like Zoroastrianism and Manichaeism, Sufism and regional paganism like Mithraism. Richly illustrated, with accompanying maps, photographs and illustrations, this book offers a comprehensive appraisal of Yezidism, not only from a religious point of view but as a historical and social phenomenon. Açikyildiz throws light on the origins of Yezidism, and charts its development and changing fortunes.

BABYLON

Legend, History and the Ancient City Michael Seymour Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York NEW

One of the greatest cities of the ancient world, Babylon was eclipsed by its own sinful reputation; and though the site of Babylon has been the centre of major excavation, the results of this work have done little to displace the many ways in which the city has endured and reinvented itself in culture. But why has Babylon so creatively fired the human imagination? Seymour’s book embraces art, archaeology, history and literature to find the answer. From Hammurabi and Nebuchadnezzar, via Diodorus, to the Book of Revelation, Voltaire, William Blake and Gore Vidal, the author brings to light a carnival of disparate sources dominated by the powerful and intoxicating idea of depravity.Yet captivating as this dark mythology is, at its root lies a remarkable imperial civilization whose complex state-building, law-making and religion dominated Mesopotamia and beyond for millennia.

The Palestine Diary of a European Diplomat Conde de Ballobar

By embarking on Israel’s ‘Periphery Pact’ in 1958, Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion aimed to transform his small state into a dynamic agent, capable of defining its own foreign policy. Although abandoned, it left a lasting imprint upon how Israel has dealt with the wider world. Schonmann traces the evolution of the policy and explores how it can operate within Israel’s relationships with other states in the present day.

Ilan Pappé, University of Exeter

From the Second Intifada to Hamas’ Electoral Victory

NEW IN PAPERBACK

Ahmed Qurie (Abu Ala) Former Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurie provides intimate and first hand detail of the monumental changes that have rocked Palestine and the peace process. Starting with the events that triggered the Second Intifada, Qurie highlights how Islamic factions, including Hamas, started to gain political ground, and how the the failure of the more moderate elements to make themselves heard amidst a deteriorating and radicalising situation, eventually led to Hamas’ electoral victory in 2006.

From the Middle East peace process and the topics under discussion with both the international community and Israel, to Israeli Prime Ministers such as Ariel Sharon and Yasser Arafat, this is a new and frank perspective of Palestinian internal governance, regional politics and international diplomacy.

Arabs and Jews describe the first ArabIsraeli war of 1948 in completely different ways – the Palestinians, call it the ‘nakba’, disaster, whilst the Israelis see it is a miraculous victory. In this book Pappé integrates new archival material with the findings of recent scholarship to present a comprehensive history of the origins and consequences of the 1948 war.

YUSIF SAYIGH Arab Economist, Palestinian Patriot Rosemary Sayigh (Ed) NEW An acclaimed activist, economist and lifelong Palestinian nationalist Yusif Sayigh (1916-2004) came of age at a time of immense political change in the Middle East. He was witness to the events that led to the loss of Palestine and his memoir constitutes a vivid social history of the region, as well as a revealing firsthand account of the Palestinian national movement almost from its earliest inception. This fascinating memoir by a pioneer and major figure of the Palestinian national movement is an account of some of the most pressing political and economic issues to have faced the Arab world for the better part of the twentieth century.

An ethnographic study of Palestinian refugees in Dheisheh refugee camp, this book looks closely at the attempts of the camp inhabitants to survive and bounce back from the profound effects of political violence and Israeli military occupation.

Nationalism, Politics and the Everyday Luigi Achilli, SOAS, University of London NEW Today, 42% of registered Palestinian refugees live in Jordan.

Yet although one might expect these camps to be highly politicised spaces, Achilli argues that there is a relative absence of political activity. Instead, there is a desire to live an ‘ordinary life’. It is within this framework of everyday life – working, watching football, surfing the internet – that Achilli examines nationalism and identity. In this book, Achilli offers vital analysis of the complexities and ambiguities of campdwellers’ experience of the political in ordinary times.

Taku Osoegawa Japan Center for Middle Eastern Studies (Beirut) NEW IN PAPERBACK

The ‘Cedar Revolution’ in Lebanon in 2005 brought an end to 30 years of Syrian military presence in the country. Osoegawa challenges the commonly-held claim that Lebanon and its leaders were simple puppets of the Syrian regime during that time. By investigating Lebanon’s own reasons for aligning itself with Syria, this book aims to understand Lebanon’s relations with Syria from 1970 to the present day, and considers the ways in which the relationship between these two states has developed since the Syrian withdrawal. Its analysis is essential not only for the study of the relationship between Lebanon and Syria, but also their impact on political stability in the wider Middle East.

Lebanon, the province of Hatay in Turkey and the Golan Heights were once part of French mandate Syria, but are now outside the boundaries of the modern Syrian state. Through the examination of Syria’s policies, Jørum analyses why some losses have been pushed to one side and others remain at the forefront in Syria’s international relations and diplomacy efforts.

Allinson argues that the answer lies in the expansion of global capitalism in the Middle East. Using the example of Jordan, this book traces the social bases of the struggles that produced the country’s foreign relations. By examining the attempts of Jordan to create foreign alliances during a time of upheaval and instability in the region, Allinson offers wider conclusions concerning the nature of the interaction between state and society in the wider Middle East.

Beirut is the cultural, commercial and economic hub of Lebanon. But to what extent has the city affected and shaped Lebanese national identity? Hayek explores how anxieties over the past, present and future of Beirut have been articulated through a sense of dislocation present in Lebanese writing since the 1960s. Examining a wide range of modern and contemporary literature, Hayek charts the city’s rise to cultural prominence, and as a significant player in shaping perceptions of Lebanese culture and identity.

COEXISTENCE IN WARTIME LEBANON

Decline of a State and Rise of a Nation Theodor Hanf American University of Beirut NEW IN PAPERBACK

For 15 years, Lebanon’s disparate confessional groups waged a bloody civil war. Today, power-sharing between Sunni, Shi‘i, Christian and Druze groups is a precarious balance, greatly affected by across the Middle East. But even during times of conflict, these communities have managed a form of coexistence in order to maintain the Lebanese state. Tracing the origins of the civil war, Hanf shows that it was primarily a surrogate war over Palestine which escalated into a conflict between the diverse Lebanese communities. This highly influential book delves into vital issues, such as how conflicts were peacefully regulated before the war, and analyses the prospects for permanent coexistence.

Qatar plays a crucial part in the Middle East today. With the second greatest natural gas resources in the region, its economic clout is considerable. At the same time the Qatar story is one of conflicting positions. Fromherz analyses these paradoxes and Qatar’s growing regional influence within a broader historical context. He offers a multi-faceted picture of the political, cultural, religious, social and economic make-up of modern Qatar, and its significance within the GCC states and the wider region.

ISLAM IN SAUDI ARABIA David Commins

THE GCC AND THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS OF THE GULF

NEW

The common image of Saudi Arabia portrays a country where religious rules dictate every detail of daily life: where women may not drive; unrelated men and women may not interact; women must veil their faces; and banks, restaurants and cafes have dual facilities: one for families, another for men. Yet life, contrary to perception, is not so clear cut as simply obeying dogma.

Commins challenges the stereotype of a country immune to change by highlighting the ways that urbanization, education, consumerism, global communications and technological innovation have exerted pressure against rules issued by the religious establishment. He places the Wahhabi movement in the wider context of Islamic history, showing how state-appointed clerics built on dynastic backing to fashion a model society of Sharia observance and moral virtue. But beneath a surface appearance of obedience to Islamic authority he detects currents that reflect Arabia’s heritage of diversity and the effects of its exposure to the West.

David Sims Foreword by Timothy Mitchell

NEW

DIVIDING THE NILE

Egypt’s Economic Nationalists in the Sudan 1918-56 David E. Mills Marshall University

Egypt has placed its hopes on developing its vast deserts. New cities, farms and development corridors have all been attempted, but the results have been meager. This book looks at Egypt’s desert developments, analyzes the failures of governmental schemes, and exposes the winners of Egypt’s desert projects, as well as the underlying narratives and political necessities behind it.

Sudanese independence has been attributed to British dominance of the Condominium, historical animosity toward Egypt, and the emergence of Sudanese nationalism.

This book argues that Egypt’s failure to develop a united economy guaranteed the ‘loss’ of the Sudan. After WWI, Egypt became increasingly interested in economic ventures in the Sudan. However, early financial assistance and the seemingly successful resolution of Nile waters disputes actually divided the regions, while later efforts to promote commerce and acquire Sudanese lands failed. This book demonstrates how Egyptian nationalists simply missed opportunities to align their economic future with that of their Sudanese brethren, resulting in a divided Nile valley.

CONTESTING ANTIQUITY IN EGYPT Archaeologies, Museums, and the Struggle for Identities from World War I to Nasser Donald Malcolm Reid NEW

Politics, Society and Interfaith Encounters Henrik Lindberg Hansen

The discovery in 1922 of Tutankhamun’s tomb accelerated the growth in Egypt of both Egyptology and ‘pharaonism’ as an inspiration in the struggle for full independence. Emphasizing the three decades from 1922 until Nasser’s revolution in 1952, this compelling follow-up to Whose Pharaohs? looks at the ways in which Egypt developed its own archaeologies – Islamic, Coptic, and Greco-Roman, as well as the more dominant ancient Egyptian. This book brings all four disciplines, as well as the related history of tourism, together in a single engaging framework.

Christianity and monasticism have long flourished along the Nile in Middle Egypt, the region stretching from al-Bahnasa (Oxyrhynchus) to Dayr al-Ganadla. The contributors to this volume, international specialists in Coptology from around the world, examine various aspects of Coptic civilization in Middle Egypt over the past two millennia.

The studies explore Coptic art and archaeology, architecture, language, and literature. The artistic heritage of monastic sites in the region is highlighted, attesting to their important legacies.

DISSENT AND REVOLUTION IN A DIGITAL AGE

WOMEN’S RIGHTS IN AUTHORITARIAN EGYPT Negotiating Between Islam and Politics Hiam El-Gousi

Social Media, Blogging and Activism in Egypt David Faris, Roosevelt University NEW IN PAPERBACK During the Arab uprisings in 2011, the role of digital media and social networking was widely reported. Faris argues that it was Egypt’s digital activism, stretching back into the 1990s, combined with numerous protest movements and an independent press, that allowed the revolution to take off.

This book tracks the rocky path taken by Egyptian bloggers operating in Mubarak’s authoritarian regime to illustrate how the state monopoly on information was eroded, making space for those previously without a voice. ebook available

A Jewish History from Pre-Islamic to Post-Colonial Times Emily Gottreich

Morocco has long been a mythic land, firmly rooted in the European imagination, appropriated by writers, artists and explorers for more than a century. In this richly illustrated book, the authors take the reader on a tour, both real and imaginary, to sites that form the quintessential Morrocan experience – from the capital city Rabat, to Marakkech, to the gentrified colonial elegance of Essaouira – they unravel the elements that are so appealing about this region.

In 2004, in one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises, the Darfur conflict presented the international community with dramatic challenges. Barltrop, drawing on original research – including interviews with Sudanese and those involved in Sudan’s conflicts, politics and peace talks – investigates what determined the outcomes of international mediation and relief in Sudan. He shows that both Sudan and the international community have missed opportunities to respond more effectively to the fundamental drivers of conflict in the country, and that lessons should be drawn from this for the practice of conflict resolution elsewhere in the world today and in the future.

A.C.S. Peacock and Sara Nur Yıldız (Eds) Both University of St Andrews NEW IN PAPERBACK

Under Seljuk rule the formerly Christian Byzantine territories of Anatolia were transformed by the development of Muslim culture, society and politics, and it was then – well before the arrival of the Ottomans – that a Turkish population became firmly established. The Seljuks of Anatolia were one of the most influential dynasties of thirteenth century Middle East, controlling some of the major trade routes and playing a crucial role in linking East to West. This book explores the history of Anatolia under Seljuk rule, examining developments in culture, politics, religion and society and shedding new light on the dynasty’s historical role in Anatolia and throughout the Middle East.

THE OTTOMAN QUEEN John Freely

This book shows how the Ottoman empire was shaped by market relations on the coast, imperial bureaucracy in the interior and religious trust networks in the frontier. It offers a novel framework which is spatial, path-dependent and comparative, highlighting the Ottoman input in the making of the modern Middle East and unveiling regional routes to modernity.

WAR BETWEEN THE TURKS AND THE PERSIANS

NEW

A Greek girl from the Cyclades islands, Kösem was captured by an Ottoman beylerbey in Bosnia and sold at the age of fifteen into the harem of Sultan Ahmet I, whereupon she very quickly became the sultan’s favourite and the quiet power behind the throne. Her power gained force during the reign of her first son, Murat IV, and was cemented during the reign of her second son, Ibrahim ‘the Mad’. She was eventually murdered by her son’s wife. Here, for the first time, is the story of a girl who became one of the most powerful queens in history, ruling over one of the most colourful of the Ottoman periods for fifty years. e

Industrialization, Imperial Germany and the Middle East Murat Özyüksel, Istanbul University NEW In 1903, under Kaiser Wilhelm II, Imperial Germany began to construct a railway which would connect Berlin to Baghdad, and project German power all the way to the Persian Gulf.

The Ottoman Emperor, Abdul Hamid II, saw the railway as a means to bolster crumbling Ottoman control of Arabia.

Using new Ottoman Turkish sources, Özyüksel shows how the Berlin-Baghdad railway became a symbol of both rising European power and declining Ottoman fortunes.

Redefining State and Society from the Ottoman Empire to the Modern Era Fatma Müge Göçek University of Michigan NEW IN PAPERBACK

In 1923 the Turkish Republic grew from the Ottoman Empire, proclaiming a new era in the Middle East. However, many of the issues affecting Turkish state and society today have their roots in the memory of this imperial history and decline. Göçek draws on Turkey’s Ottoman history to explore current concerns of gender, ethnicity and its international position. At the end of WWI, the Ottoman Empire was divided up in the Treaty of Sèvres. In this book, Göçek explores how the memory of the Treaty has survived, impacting both state and society and penetrating national strategic culture, institutionalising itself in Turkey’s foreign and defence policies.

Hanna questions the mainstream view that identifies the sources of modern world history as the Reformation, the expansion of Europe, formation of trading companies, and scientific discoveries. She shows that there were trends that touched Egypt, India, southeast Asia, and Europe, from development of language to French entrepreneurs trying to imitate the Egyptian method of dyeing cloth.

Over the last three decades Afghanistan has been plagued by crisis – from Soviet invasion in 1979 and Taliban rule to US invasion following the events of 9/11. Here the top specialists on Afghanistan, including Olivier Roy, Ahmad Rashid and Jonathan Goodhand, provide a unique overview of the evolution, causes and future of the Afghan crisis, covering political and military events and examining the role of ethnic groups, religious and ideological factors and the role of the leaders and war chiefs of the period – from the anti-Soviet resistance to the presidency of Hamid Karzai. Examining recent events in the light of the country’s economy, Afghan civil society, cultural heritage and state reconstruction attempts, this is a comprehensive and diverse look at a country whose recent history has been marked by internal conflicts and foreign intervention.

IMAGINING KURDISTAN Identity, Culture and Society Özlem Belçim Galip University of Oxford

NEW

Due to the conflict and violence that have swept across the country and the wider region in the wake of the Islamic State (IS) group’s formation, Iraq’s Kurds having even become central to understanding the politics of the region. In this book, Aziz asks the pertinent questions: who are the Kurds today? What is their relationship to the Iraqi state? How do they perceive themselves and their prospective political future? And in what way are they crucial for the stability of the Iraqi state? Through extensive field research, he constructs a detailed portrait of the Kurds of Iraq, which will provide important insights for students and researchers of the Middle East and for those interested in the vital issues of nationalism and ethnic identity in the modern nation state, and the impact these issues have on the stability and future of Iraq itself.

KURDISH LIFE IN CONTEMPORARY TURKEY

NEW IN PAPERBACK

Spread across several countries, the Kurds constitute the largest stateless nation in the world. In this context, a striking question arises: how are Kurdish identity and the idea of the homeland – both as a symbol and as territorial space – constructed in writings from Turkish Kurdistan and its diaspora? Through a comparative analysis of Kurdish writing, Galip here provides the first comprehensive look at modern Kurdish literature.

Migration, Gender and Ethnic Identity Anna Grabolle Celiker The question of Kurdish identity and belonging is counted among the most controversial and challenging topics in modern Turkey.This book cuts to the heart of this debate in an exploration of shifting Kurdish identities brought on by extensive rural-urban labour migration, which has shaped the lives of many rural Turkish Kurds as competing discourses on religiosity, gender relations and social hierarchy redraw the boundaries of traditional life.

THE HISTORY OF CENTRAL ASIA The Age of the Silk Roads (Volume 2) Christoph Baumer NEW

The Age of the Silk Roads (c 200 BC–c 900 AD) shaped the course of the future. The foundation by the Han dynasty of an extensive network of interlinking trade routes, known as the Silk Road, led to an explosion of cultural and commercial transactions across Central Asia that had a profound impact on civilization. In this second volume of his authoritative history of the region, Baumer explores the unique flow of goods, peoples and ideas along the dusty tracks and wandering caravan routes that brought Europe and the Mediterranean into contact with Asia. Tracing the rise and fall of empires, this richly illustrated book charts the ebb and flow of epic history.

Gender and Equality in North Africa

University of Auckland NEW

Doris H. Gray Florida State University NEW IN PAPERBACK

Are women in North Africa and the Middle East ‘feminist’? Or is being a Muslim incompatible with feminism? Is there such a thing as ‘Islamic feminism’? Through interviews with Moroccan activists and jurists – both male and female – and by situating these interviews within their socio-political and economic contexts, Gray addresses these questions. By doing so, she attempts to move beyond the simple bifurcation of ‘feminist’ and ‘Islamist’ to look at the many facets of internal gender discourse within one Muslim country, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of the discussion on women’s rights in the Muslim world in general.

By marking out a ‘third way’ that looks beyond ‘feminism’ and ‘Islamism’, Gray presents religion and faith not as blocking gender equality but as a source of inspiration to explore new ways of conceiving modernity.

Balala demonstrates how, in order to bridge the gap between the principles outlined in the seventh century and commercial practice in the twenty-first century, Islamic finance jurisdictions need to open themselves to learning from the experiences and mistakes of the English common law.

Assessing Islam as a global phenomenon, Raudvere engages with its history, while also giving comprehensive coverage to Muslim ritual life and Islamic ethics. She discusses moral debates and lifestyle issues such as halal consumption, interfaith dialogue and the wearing of the veil.

The book looks at questions of universal values, Islam and democracy, gender issues, women’s rights and pluralism, contrasting the thinking of Wahabism and radical Islamism with the liberal reformist voices.

NEW IN PAPERBACK

Long before the European Renaissance, the Arab world was ablaze with the knowledge, invention and creativity of its Golden Age. This is the story of how Islamic science, which began with the translation of Greek manuscripts into Arabic in the eighth century, preserved and enhanced the knowledge acquired from Greece, Mesopotamia, India and China. This knowledge influenced western thinkers from Thomas Aquinas to Copernicus and helped inspire the Renaissance. Freely tells this spellbinding story of the melting pot of cultures involved and concludes with the decline of Islam’s Golden Age, which led the West to forget the debt it owed to the Muslim world and the influence of medieval Islamic civilisation in forging the beginnings of modern science.

POWER AND KNOWLEDGE IN MEDIEVAL ISLAM

DEMOCRACY, HUMAN RIGHTS AND LAW IN ISLAMIC THOUGHT

Shi‘i and Sunni Encounters in Baghdad Tariq al-Jamil

Mohammed Abed al-Jabri, University of Rabat NEW IN PAPERBACK

There has been much discussion concerning the notion of Islamic rule and the application of Shari’ah by the state. Central to these debates are the three key themes: democracy, human rights and law. Jabri examines how these three concepts have been applied in the history of the Arab world, and shows that they are determined by political and social context, not by Islamic doctrine. He argues that in order to develop democratic societies in which human rights are respected, the Arab world cannot simply rely on old texts and traditions.

ISLAMIC STUDIES

RECOGNIZING SUFISM Contemplation in the Islamic Tradition Arthur F. Buehler Victoria University of Wellington

NEW

DREAMS AND VISIONS IN THE WORLD OF ISLAM Elizabeth Sirriyeh University of Leeds NEW

Sufism is all too often associated just with ‘mysticism’ in the West. In this original new book, Buehler suggests that conflating Sufism and mysticism is only partially valid. He shows that the vast majority of Sufi practice, both recently and throughout history, has little or nothing to do with a esoteric transcendence but is rather focused on contemplative activity.

People in Western societies have long been interested in their dreams and what they mean. For Muslims, dreaming and the import of visions are here of enormous significance, to the degree that many believe that in their dreams they are receiving divine guidance. In her authoritative new book, Sirriyeh offers the first concerted history of the rise of dream interpretation in Islamic culture, from medieval times to the present. Central to the book is the figure of the Prophet Muhammad – seen to represent for Muslims the perfect dreamer, visionary and interpreter of dreams. Less benignly, dreams have been exploited in the propaganda of Islamic militants, and in apocalyptic visions relating to the 9/11 attacks. This timely volume gives an important, fascinating and overlooked subject the exploration it has long deserved.

SUFIS, SALAFIS AND ISLAMISTS

SACRED SPACE AND HOLY WAR

The Contested Ground of British Islamic Activism Sadek Hamid Liverpool Hope University NEW

In the past 300 years, Shi’i Islam has grown impressively in Iraq, northern India and Pakistan and has dominated Islamic world politics since the 1970s. Cole examines Shi’i Islam as a world religion that has faced modernity on its own terms. He demonstrates the way in which Shi’is have sought to define and defend space and time as sacred and shows how clerical institutions have been supple and imaginative in coming to terms with phenomena such as modern finance capital, imperialism and the modern bureaucratic state.

The Use and Function of Maslaha in Islamic Jurisprudence Abdul Aziz bin Sattam, Imam Muhammad bin

Saud Islamic University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Foreword by Muhammad A S Abdel Haleem NEW The idea of maslaha has a rich history in classical legal thought and literature. Translated into English as ‘general benefit’ or ‘general interest’, it has been the subject of intense argument in Muslim legal manuals about it should be constructed and interpreted. In this thorough and original treatment, the author offers the first sustained examination of one of the most important tenets of Sharia.

SHI’I SECTARIANISM IN THE MIDDLE EAST Modernisation and the Quest for Islamic Universalism Elisheva Machlis

The 21st century has seen an unprecedented radicalisation of Muslims across the world. In some cases, this has led to terror and violence. Yet as the West pours huge military resources into the ‘war on terror’, we still know very little about the ideology which drives the terrorists.

Now, Bokhari provides a glimpse into the inspiration behind today’s militant Islam. He presents a spectrum of influential thinkers, including Bin Laden’s deputy. Situating each piece in its cultural and political context, Bokhari offers us insights into Islamist thinking on a range of issues.

Prized for their stamina and their acclimation to the harsh conditions of the Arabian deserts, the ancestors of the horses that are now recognized as the Egyptian Arabian purebred horse entered Egypt centuries ago, establishing the valuable bloodlines of the breed there. The breeding programs in Egypt therefore became the root source for the finest Arabian horses, attracting passionate enthusiasts from all corners of the world. The Arabian Horse of Egypt traces the history and evolution of the Arabian’s journey into Egypt.

The romantic lyricism of the great Persian poet Hafiz (1315-1390) continues to be admired around the world. Recent exploration of that lyricism by Iranian scholars has revealed that, in addition to his masterful use of poetic devices, Hafiz’s verse is deeply steeped in the philosophy and symbolism of Persian love mysticism. This innovative volume discusses the aesthetic theories and mystical philosophy of the classical Persian love-lyric (ghazal) as exemplified by Hafiz. Contributors from both the West and Iran conduct an investigation of the love lyrics of Hafiz and of what they signified to that high culture and civilization which was devoted to the School of Love in medieval Persia.

Two Hundred Years of Travel Writing Michael Haag

NEW

Founded by Alexander the Great over 2,300 years ago, Alexandria has belonged both to the Mediterranean and to Egypt, a luxuriant out-planting of Europe on the coast of Africa, but also a city of the East – the fabled cosmopolitan town that has long fascinated travelers, writers, and poets, where French and Arabic, Italian and Greek were spoken in the cafés and on the streets. In this book, we follow the delight of travelers discovering the strangeness of the city and its variety and pleasures. Most of all they are haunted by the city’s resplendent past – the Library, the temple built by Cleopatra for Antony, and the great Pharos lighthouse, of which only traces remain – as they voyage through an immense ghost city of the imagination.

Beirut was the point of entry to the Levant for many Europeans and Americans undertaking a Grand Tour or a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, and visitors recorded their impressions of this effervescent port city where East rubs against West. This book gathers the choicest of these, from writers such as Alphonse de Lamartine and Mark Twain, and provides a vivid glimpse behind the veil of this elusive and alluring city.

Journeys Across Iran Cyrus Massoudi NEW

For Cyrus Massoudi, the country his parents were forced to flee 30 years ago was a place wholly unknown to him.

Wanting to make sense of his roots, he embarked on a journey that spanned hundreds of miles and thousands of years through Iranian history. Rich portrayals of Sufis and ageing aristocrats, smugglers and underground rock bands are all woven together with history, religion and mythology to form a unique portrait of contemporary Iranian society.

MY WAY

ON THE NILE IN THE GOLDEN AGE OF TRAVEL

A Muslim Woman’s Journey Mona Siddiqui

Andrew Humphreys

Polarized debates about ‘Islam’ and ‘the West’ are now so ubiquitous that it is easy to forget how damaging they can be. The vast majority of Muslims do not wish to see Islam used as a divisive force.

How then can Muslim stereotyping be challenged? Mona Siddiqui is one of the foremost Western authorities on the reconciliation of twenty-first-century life and Islamic custom. In this new and searching book, she applies a uniquely probing intelligence to crucial issues of faith and identity within society at large.

While speaking from within a particular tradition, she touches on matters of universal concern. Who are we? How do we cope with growing older? What kind of world will we leave to our children? Placing her rich personal journey in a wider context, the author is able to explore love and sex, multiculturalism and diversity, and ageing and death through the prism of her experience as both a Muslim and a modern woman.

Since Antony and Cleopatra honeymooned on the Nile on a gilded barge, visitors to Egypt have taken to the river as the best way to experience the country’s wonders.

Using period photography, vintage posters and advertising material, this book tells the story of the people, the places, and the boats, from pioneering Nile travelers like Lucie Duff Gordon, through to famed passengers such as Rudyard Kipling, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Agatha Christie.

FROM CAIRO TO BAGHDAD

NEW

British Travellers in Arabia James Canton

Tangier in the ‘60s and ‘70s was paradise for a young writer; louche, edgy, cosmopolitan, the beauty and freedom of the city lured a dazzling array of artists, writers, millionaires and socialites, who wrote, painted, partied and experienced life with an intensity that they never could ‘back home’. Into this world came John Hopkins, a young writer who became a part of the Tangier crowd that included the likes of William Burroughs, Tennessee Williams, Yves Saint Laurent and Malcolm Forbes. Those ‘Golden Years’ are long gone, but, in the pages of John Hopkins’ classic, beautifully-wrought diary, that heady world is brought to life once more.
