Описание:
This book tells the history of Herat, from its desolation under Chingiz Khan in 1222, to its capitulation to Tamerlane in 1381. Unlike the other three quarters of Khurasan (Balkh, Marw, Nishapur), which were ravaged by the Mongols, Herat became an important political, cultural and economic centre of the eastern Islamic world. The post-Mongol age in which an autochthonous Tajik dynasty, the Kartids, ruled the region set the foundations for Herat’s Timurid-era splendors.
Divided into two parts (a political-military history and a social-economic history), the book explains why the Mongol Empire rebuilt Herat: its rationales and approaches; and Chinggisid internecine conflicts that impacted on Herat’s people. It analyses the roles of Iranians, Turks and Mongols in regional politics; in devising fortifications; in restoring commercial and cultural edifices; and in resuscitating economic and cultural activities in the Herat Quarter.

In the melee, Sarah tumbles overboard and washes ashore on an island ruled by the wicked Mr. Grim, who sends his pirate son Black Tooth out to steal babies and then raises these hapless tykes to become Woolies, weavers of fine rugs. Chased by Mr. Grim, Sarah stumbles into the enclosure known as Woolie World and meets Freck, a timid five-year-old dressed head to toe in a fuzzy white garment.

Описание: Tamerlane Sword of Islam alias Alexader the Great Brief consensual history version: the utmost warlord Tamerlane or Timur the Lame (1336 - 1405) was a Turco-Mongol conqueror. He led military campaigns across Western, South and Central Asia, the Caucasus and southern Russia, and emerged as the most powerful ruler in the Muslim world after defeating the Mamluks of Egypt and the Ottoman Empire. Tamerlane founded of the Timurid Empire in Persia and Central Asia. Timur tried to restore the Mongol Empire and justified his Iranian, Mamluk, and Ottoman campaigns as a re-imposition of legitimate Mongol control over lands taken by usurpers. In the course of his numerous campaigns that span from Russia to India and to legitimize his conquests, Timur relied on Islamic symbols and language, referred to himself as the "Sword of Islam", and patronized educational and religious institutions. The research of Dr. Fomenko et al leads us to a new understanding of the famous Tamerlane's biography. The oversized Tamerlane figure was a collation of two real historical figures for the most part, the first of them being Temir Aksak, or the "Iron Cripple," from the late XIV century, and the second - Sultan Mehmet II (Mohammed II), the famous XV century conqueror who took Constantinople in 1453. Moreover, not a drop of Ghengis blood in neither of them. Better yet, the figmental figure of Tamerlane idem Timur became the foundation for the consensual 'biography' of the greatest warrior of all times Alexander the Great. The dominating historical discourse in its current state was essentially crafted in the XVI century from a rather contradictory jumble of sources literally in line with American philosopher Santana's definition: History is a pack of lies about events that never happened told by people who weren't there . Prescient Saint Augustine warned: 'be wary of mathematicians, particularly when they speak the truth '.
