Описание: The high point of medieval Islamic expansion was the 700-year presence of the 'Moors' in Spain and Portugal. The Arab and Berber conquest was followed by the establishment of a richly distinct culture in Andalusia, where for a while Muslim and Christian co-operated as often as they fought. The rise and fall of successive Islamic dynasties brought new invaders, fragmentation and disunity; and the growing Christian kingdoms to the north eventually doomed the amirate of Granada, the last Moorish bastion, which fell to the Castilians in 1492. The colourful armies of Western Islam are described and illustrated here in fascinating detail.

Описание: A poignant testament to the city shattered by Syria`s civil war.
During the second half of the 10th/4th century, the Umayyad caliphate of al-Andalus became a powerful political formation in Western Europe. Described by the contemporary German nun Hrotsvitha as the ‘ornament of the world’, Cordoba was the destiny of embassies and traders coming from places as far away as Constantinople, the Ottoman empire and Italy. The zenith of this political supremacy coincided with the rule of al-?akam II (961-976 CE), whose name is associated with the enlargement of the mosque of Cordoba, the magnificent palatine city of Mad?nat al-Zahr?? and the rich caliphal library which housed Arab, Latin and Hebrew manuscripts.
This book is based on an extraordinary source that had never been the subject of a comprehensive study: the annals written by an official and chronicler of the caliph’s court, ‘?sa b. A?mad al-R?z?, who carefully annotated the big and small events of the court. Used by Ibn ?ayy?n to compose one of the volumes of his celebrated Muqtabis, these ‘annals’ have come to us in a substantial fragment of more than 135 folia that cover the period from June 971 to July 975 CE. This source provides an eye-witness account of the caliphate, which describes with stunning detail all the events, characters, places and narratives of the Umayyad caliphate, and is a fundamental work in helping us to understand the configuration of the Mediterranean in the 10th century CE.

Описание: In 1923 the Turkish government, under its new leader Kemal Ataturk, signed a renegotiated Balkan Wars treaty with the major powers of the day and Greece. This treaty provided for the forced exchange of 1.3 million Christians from Anatolia to Greece, in return for 30,000 Greek Muslims. The mass migration that ensued was a humanitarian catastrophe - of the 1.3 million Christians relocated it is estimated only 150,000 were successfully integrated into the Greek state. Furthermore, because the treaty was ethnicity-blind, tens of thousands of Muslim Greeks (ethnically and linguistically) were forced into Turkey against their will. Both the Greek and Turkish leadership saw this exchange as crucial to the state-strengthening projects both powers were engaged in after the First World War. Here, Emine Bedlek approaches this enormous shift in national thinking through literary texts - addressing the themes of loss, identity, memory and trauma which both populations experienced. The result is a new understanding of the tensions between religious and ethnic identity in modern Turkey.
Описание: The texts of the present Compendium, seemingly the most comprehensive collection of ShiI pilgrimage prayers addressed to the Fourteen Infallibles (AS), have been edited by collating reliable sources. Each prayer is preceded by traditions on the merits of visiting the shrine of the Infallible to be followed by the narrations and sources of prayer. The classification of the prayers is regional (ie: they are arranged according to the burial places of the Infallibles). Further, mention has been made of the devotional acts to be performed at each shrine. The contents of the volumes include the following: Volume 1: (Medina) includes the pilgrimage prayers devoted to the Noble Prophet (SAW), Fatimat al-Zahra (SA), the Imams (AS) and saints buried at the Baqi Cemetery, and the martyrs of the Uhud Battle; Volume 2: the prayers devoted to the Commander of the Faithful, Imam Ali (AS; Najaf) and those said at the Mosque of Kufa; Volume 3: those devoted to Imam al-Husayn (AS) and Hadrat Abu al-Fadl alAbbas (AS) and other martyrs buried in Karbala; Volume 4: those devoted to the Kazimayn (ie: Imam Musa (AS) and Imam Muhammad Taqi (AS), and the Askariyan, ie: Imam Ali al-Naqi (AS) and Imam Hasan al-Askari (AS), and those of Imam al-Mahdi, the Twelfth Imam (AS; Samarra and Kazimayn); Volume 5: those devoted to Imam al-Rida (AS; Mashhad); Volume 6: Ziyarat al-Jamia (ie: general prayers and also those devoted to the descendants of the Imams (eg: Hadrat Masuma (AS)).
