NEW
Composed more than a millennium ago, the
Shahnameh – the great royal book of the
Persian court – is a pillar of Persian literature
and one of the world’s unchallenged
masterpieces. Recounting the history of the
Persian people from its mythic origins down
to the Islamic conquest in the seventh
century, the Shahnameh is the stirring and
beautifully textured story of a proud
civilization. But the Shahnameh (or, literally,
the ‘Book of Kings’) is much more than a
literary masterpiece: it is the wellspring of the
modern Persian language, a touchstone for
Iranian national consciousness and its
illustrations, in manuscripts of different eras,
are the inspiration for one of the world’s
greatest artistic traditions. Epic of the Persian
Kings combines revealing scholarship with
stunning, full-colour illustrations from the rich
manuscript tradition of the Shahnameh.

THE PALACE OF DARIUS AT SUSA
Jean Perrot
NEW
Long before the European Renaissance, while
the western world was languishing in what
was once called the ‘Dark Ages’, 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 eighth-century
Baghdad, preserved and enhanced the
knowledge
acquired
from
Greece,
Mesopotamia, India and China. Through the
astrologers,
physicians,
philosophers,
mathematicians and alchemists of the Muslim
world, this knowledge was carried from
Samarkand and Baghdad to Cordoba and
beyond, influencing western thinkers from
Thomas Aquinas and Copernicus and helping
to inspire the cultural phenomenon of the
Renaissance. John Freely tells this spellbinding
story against a background of the melting pot
of cultures involved and concludes with the
decline of Islam’s Golden Age.

THE ASSYRIANS OF THE MIDDLE
EAST
Stepping into History
Eden Naby
NEW
The rapid expansion of the early Islamic
world is conventionally ascribed to a
combination of brilliant military leadership
and religious fervour. In this book, Abdulaziz
Duri demonstrates how the growth,
development and durability of early Islamic
governance derived from highly sophisticated
systems of administration (in which the idea
of a Muslim ummah was the central feature)
as well as efficient mechanisms for taxation
and tax collection. The fact that in a highly
dynamic period of Islamic history a seamless
system of administration could endure for
several centuries, from the early Muslim
conquests and the later Umayyad era to the
end of Abbasid rule, is testimony to the
political and organisational skills of these early
Muslim leaders. Duri’s work makes a major
contribution to our understanding of how
Islam established itself and flourished as a
lasting major force in the development of
world history.

Darius I ruled an Empire stretching from the
Nile to the Indus valley, and was one of the
greatest of the ancient Persian kings. His
palace at Susa, first discovered in 1851, has
only recently been thoroughly excavated and
researched. This groundbreaking book
shows the magnificent architecture, a fusion
of Mesopotamian and Iranian, of one of
Persia’s most memorable monuments. Jean
Perrot, the world-renowned archaeologist,
and the foremost experts in the field, bring to
life the full story of this Achaemenid site.
Lavishly illustrated with over 500 images The
Palace of Darius at Susa is an in-depth study of
its history, discovery and archaeology, and is
of seminal importance to the study and
understanding of Ancient Persia.

The Assyrians are the last substantial ethnic
group in the world to have preserved Aramaic
– the language spoken by Jesus and his
disciples – as its native language. To listen to
Aramaic is to catch the echoes of biblical
Palestine. A minority people with distinctive
cultural and religious, as well as linguistic,
traditions, the Assyrians have in the modern
era come under threat from the twin perils of
persecution and assimilation. Though
nowadays located mostly in Iraq and Syria,
this remarkable indigenous race – the
easternmost Christians of the Middle East –
were at one time numerically strong also in
Iran, before falling victim in the early 20th
century to Ottoman assault. The rise of
Islamic exclusivity – in Iran following the
Revolution of 1979, and in recent decades
elsewhere in the Middle East – has further
diminished the Assyrian communities, driving
them from their ancient homelands. Does
diaspora offer them rescue, or oblivion? Eden
Naby is the foremost scholar in English of the
venerable Assyrian heritage. This is the first
time that the story of the resilient Assyrians
has been told in its entirety.

The rehabilitation of the historic cities of
Southern Mediterranean countries emerged
as a key issue some twenty-five years ago.Yet
despite this fact medinas still remain subject
to inescapable decay. The Medina brings
together a team of distinguished specialists to
address this pressing problem. They advocate
a unique approach, set against the backdrop of
the economic, social and urban development
that southern Mediterranean countries are
predicted to experience. The first part of the
book offers a general introduction to the
issues of the rehabilitation of historic cities in
the Mediterranean and offers medium term
scenarios focusing upon the socio-economic
conditions and spatial development in the
region.The second part of the book presents
a number of case studies. The book also
provides important material on the financial
instruments available for the rehabilitation of
medinas, a topic yet to be addressed in
existing works.

The Medieval Islamic
World
Guy Le Strange
NEW MAJOR WORK
Guy le Strange (1854-1933) was an English
orientalist. A private scholar, he learnt Persian
and Arabic for pleasure. He studied under
Julius Mohl in Paris and made important
contributions to Islamic scholarship. He
established his reputation with his pioneering
work on the geography of the Holy Land,
Palestine Under the Moslems, where he made
available for the first time translations from
the medieval Arab historians and
geographers. The Medieval Islamic World set
brings together his major writings on the
historical geography of the Near and Middle
East and includes not only his major books
such as Palestine Under the Moslems, Baghdad
During the Abbasid Caliphate, and Lands of the
Eastern Caliphate but also includes a volume
devoted to his less familiar writings, such as
his translation of Ibn Serapion on the
waterways of Iraq and his translation of the
Farsnameh of Ibn al-Balkhia.

HISTORY / GENERAL
TUAREG SOCIETY WITHIN A
GLOBALIZED WORLD NEW
Saharan Life in Transition
Ines Kohl and Anja Fischer (Eds), Austraian
Academy of Sciences
The Tuareg are an ancient nomadic people
who follow Islam and have inhabited the
Sahara for millennia. In what ways have the
lives of the Tuareg changed, and what roles do
they have, in a modern and increasingly
globalised world? Here, leading scholars
explore the many facets of contemporary
Tuareg existence: from transnational identity
to international politics, from economy to
social structure, from music to beauty, from
mobility to slavery.A tribe able to move freely
across national borders, the Tuareg face the
risk of marginalisation by national and
international politics, and are left without
nationality or citizenship. At the same time,
the Tuareg are seen as a link between the
Arab and African worlds, and their familiarity
with the Sahara makes them a port of call for
African migrants traversing the desert to
reach Europe.This is the first comprehensive
study of the Tuareg today.

The Aga Khan and
the Ismailis
Malise Ruthven with
Gerard Wilkinson
NEW
From highland peasant farmers in Central Asia
to Canadian industrialists, South Asian
buisinessmen and Europe-based scholars, the
Nizari Ismailis are one of the Muslim world’s
most diverse Shi’a communities. The spiritual
leadership of this highly dynamic community
has in recent generations come to be known
as the ‘Aga Khan’. This book, which coincides
with the fiftieth anniversary of the present
Aga Khan’s succession as Imam, or spiritual
leader, of the Ismailis, assesses the
achievements of his ‘Imamat’ in modernising
the communities’ institutions and creating
one of the world’s leading development
agencies, the Aga Khan Development
Network. In the process the book explores
how the present Harvard-educated Aga Khan
has attempted to preserve and build on a
religious tradition rooted in medieval
theology while at the same time embracing
the modern world without loss of faith or
cultural identity.

A JOURNEY IN THE FUTURE OF
WATER
Terje Tvedt, University of
Bergen
NEW
The future of water is the future of
humankind. How we manage this most
precious resource will have an impact on all of
us – from environmental issues and the
balance between rich and poor, to its role in
global power relations. It will define war and
peace and the destinies of countries and
continents. In an effort to better understand
the many aspects of water – cultural,
technological and political – the author
travelled to twenty-five countries around the
world, exploring key water issues and
developments with politicians, engineers and
ordinary people. A Journey in the Future of
Water presents the fruit of those travels.
Professor Tvedt bringing his unrivalled
experience to bear in an engaging, amusing
and informative narrative that reveals the
challenges we face in relation to our most
precious resource. Attractively illustrated, A
Journey in the Future of Water deals with one of
the most important topics on the
international agenda.

DEAD SEA LEVEL
Science, Exploration
and Imperial
Interests in the Near
East
Haim Goren, tel-Hai
Academic College, Israel
NEW
In the nineteenth century The Dead Sea and
the Tigris-Euphrates river system had great
political significance: the one as a possible
gateway for a Russian invasion of Egypt, the
other as a potentially faster route to India.
This is the traditional explanation for the
presence of the international powers in the
region. This important new book questions
this view. Through a study of two important
projects of the time – international efforts to
determine the exact level of the Dead Sea,
and Chesney’s Euphrates Expedition to find a
quicker route to India – Professor Goren
shows how other forces than the interests of
empire were involved. He reveals the
important role played by private individuals
and establishes a wealth of new connections
between the key players; and he reveals for
the first time an important Irish nexus. The
resulting work adds an important new
dimension to our existing understanding of
this period.

NEW
This pioneering volume brings together
leading international scholars to provide new
insights into the changing relationship
between society and water over the
centuries. Drawing upon the latest research
findings the authors suggest new explanations
as to why some civilisations flourished whilst
yet others failed. Ranging from explorations
of classical agrarian civilisations – such as the
Indus, Angkor and Maya- to analyses of the
role of water in the modernisation process of
countries like Spain, Britain and Japan, this
important new work furthers our
understanding of the ways in which the key
relationship between humans and water has
given rise to new forms of social organisation,
new technologies and economic activities.

More than 2,000 years ago Pausanias, the
Greek geographer who travelled throughout
the Ancient world, declared that no city had
the right to call itself a city unless it had at its
centre an ornamental fountain. And Sextus
Julius Frontinus, the planner responsible for
providing Ancient Rome with its fresh water,
complained at the acclaim accorded the the
useless Egyptian pyramids and Greek temples
whilst the absolutely essential water
structures of Rome were disregarded. The
cultural and historical importance of water
are just two of the many aspect of water
explored in this unique three volume work.
Ranging from ancient times to the present day
all aspects – social, cultural, political, religious,
historical, economic and technological are
encompassed. The result is one of the most
complete and up to date accounts of the vital
role played by water in the history and
development of human civilization and its
continuing importance for the modern world.

NEW IN PAPERBACK
Vast, inscrutable, unpredictable, Syria has
traditionally been the toughest nut to crack in
the Middle East peace process.After 9/11 and
Damascus’ opposition to the War in Iraq,
Washington decided it had had enough, and
began a quiet campaign against Asad’s regime.
There were no western journalists or
academics based in Damascus during this
period – except for Andrew Tabler. In the Lion’s
Den tells the unique story of the war no-one
knew about as seen from the inside.As Tabler
negotiates his way through the labyrinth of
Syrian politics, where nothing is at it seems,
and no-one says what they mean, we learn
how the country works, and how the
signature events in Washington’s attempts to
create a ‘New Middle East’ – sanctions,
meetings with opposition groups, support for
Israel’s 2006 bombing campaign in Lebanon –
played out in the corridors of power in
Damascus. Part expose, part vivid narrative
account, In the Lion’s Den is an essential
introduction to modern Syria.
In this new, updated edition of his debatechanging and critically acclaimed book, David
Gardner surveys the modern Middle East,
probing with acerbic wit and insight in to the
history of each of the major countries and
teasing out explanations for their
dysfunctional political development. Skipping
deftly from the religious schools of Southern
Iraq to the prisons of Mubarak’s Egypt, from
the opulent palaces of Saudi Arabia to the
Hezbollah bunkers of Lebanon, Gardner
builds up a compelling portrait of the region,
and argues persuasively that it is the west’s
continued connivance with tyrants that is
largely responsible for making it a byword for
conflict and terrorism.

The Internet and
Politics in Iran
Annabelle Sreberny,
SOAS and Gholam
Khiabany, University of
Westminster
NEW
The Islamic Republic of Iran – of all places –
has become a hub of cyber activity. It has an
estimated 700,000 bloggers. The Internet is
celebrated as an agent of social change in
countries like Iran, where censorship is
prevalent, but most literature on the subject
has struggled to grasp what this new
phenomenon actually means. In what ways
does the Internet function differently to print
culture? Are we seeing the construction of a
new kind of public sphere? Will the Iranian
blogosphere create a culture of dissidence,
which eventually overpowers the Islamist
regime? In this groundbreaking work, the
authors give a flavour of contemporary
Internet culture in Iran, and analyse how this
new form of communication is affecting the
social and political life of the country.
Blogistan offers a new reading of Iranian
politics, and a new conceptual framework for
understanding the politics of the Internet,
with major implications for China, the wider
Middle East and beyond.

Far more than just a military conflict, the ‘War
on Terror’ has been a struggle over values and
meanings, a desperate contest for hearts and
minds in which language has become the
battlefield. In this highly original book, Fred
Halliday takes us on a tour of this new warzone, its artillery and trenches, minefields and
booby-traps. Drawing on years of painstaking
collation, Halliday shows how the ‘War on
Terror’ has brought us not just new words,
such as ‘Gitmo’, and new imports, such as
‘jihad’, but also new ways of using existing
language, such as ‘extraordinary rendition’.
Scanning the pock-marked semantic
landscape of the post 9/11 world, he uncovers
hidden twists of phrasing and word
associations, which in themselves tell a story
about the violent clash of ideologies that has
marked the opening of the 21st century. Part
indispensable reference, part polemic, part
entertaining snapshot of our times, Shocked
and Awed is a bristling arsenal of the 21st
century’s most potent weapons: words.

Narratives of IsraeliPalestinian History
Ilan Pappé, University of
Exeter and Jamil Hilal,
Palestinian Institution
for the Study of
Democracy in Ramallah
(Eds)
NEW
Across the Wall arose from a unique
collaboration between scholars from Israel
and the Palestinian territories, seeking to
arrive at a shared framework for studying the
history of this troubled land. Ilan Pappe and
Jamil Hilal, among the top academics in Israel
and Palestine respectively, brought historians
from both sides of the wall together for
dialogue on history, identity, and the meaning
of the conflict. In the volume, they argue
persuasively for the concept of a ‘bridging
narrative’, a historiographical discourse which
can accommodate seemingly incompatible
national meta-narratives. Proceeding from this
innovative theoretical framework, Across the
Wall then goes on to offer critical
examinations of some of the most contested
issues in the history of the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict: the 1948 ‘Nakba’, the 1967 war, the
occupation, and the formation of the PLO.
The result is a radical new take on the history
of Israel/Palestine.
PALESTINIANS IN LEBANON
Long-term
Displacement and
Refugee Coping
Mechanisms
Rebecca Roberts
NEW
Palestinian refugees in Lebanon refer to
themselves as ‘the forgotten people’. Sixty
years on, tens of thousands still live in
temporary shelters, in overcrowded
unsanitary camps where unemployment and
poverty levels are high. Denied basic human
rights, they are neglected by the humanitarian
community, ignored by the international
media. This pioneering book explores the
experiences of the oldest and largest single
refugee group in the world. Drawing upon
comprehensive research in the twelve official
refugee camps in Lebanon, the author
examines the impact of protracted refugee
status on the coping mechanisms developed
by refugees. Palestinians in Lebanon provides a
long overdue account of one of the most
neglected refugee communities in the world.

STABILITY AND CHANGE IN THE

Kjetil Selvik, University

Stenslie, Norwegian
Defence Staff
NEW
In this ground-breaking book, aimed at a new
generation of students, Stig Stenslie and Kjetil
Selvik provide a new introduction to the
contemporary Middle East, using topical
questions about stability and change as a way
of interrogating the politics, economics and
history of the region. How have regimes from
North Africa to the Gulf perpetuated
themselves in spite of the weakness of the
western-style state, the Islamist trend, and the
destabilising effects of war and terrorism?
What strategies have states used to control
their societies, and how have both states and
societies adapted over time? Both an
accessible reference resource and a thoughtprovoking analysis, Stability and Change in the
Modern Middle East introduces the key
theoretical concepts for understanding the
region and the freshest thinking on debates
surrounding them, and brings the empirical
material into sharp focus through its unique
thematic approach.

BEYOND ISLAM
A New
Understanding of the
Middle East
Sami Zubaida, Birkbeck
College, University of
London
NEW
In this magisterial work, Sami Zubaida draws
on a distinguished career’s worth of
experience trying to understand the region
to address the fundamental question in
Middle East studies: what is the Middle East?
He argues, controversially, that to see it
through the prism of Islam, as it is
conventionally viewed, is to completely
misunderstand it. Many of what we think of as
the ‘Islamic’ characteristics of the region are
products of culture and society, not religion.
To think of Islam itself as an essential, antimodern force in the region rather than
something shaped by specific historicaleconomic processes is, Zubaida argues, a
mistake. Instead, he offers us an alternative
view of the region, its historic
cosmopolitanism, its religious and cultural
diversity, its rapid adoption of new media
cultures, which reveals a multi-faceted and
complex region teeming with multiple
identities.

The contemporary world is increasingly

many religious traditions, and Shi’i Islam is no
exception. This book seeks to investigate the
nature of contemporary Shi’ism, focusing on
the creation of identities – showing the
diversity of thought within the Shi’i world, the
transnational nature of Shi’i networks, and the
forces of tradition and modernity influencing
current developments in Shi’i identity.

Arab Cultural Studies is a fast emerging field
of research and study in Middle East and
western universities. In this book, prominent
scholars, writing from both Arab and western
academia, discuss for the first time the ways in
which this nascent area can be conceptualised
and theorised. They provide a meta-narrative
about how scholars have thus far thought and
unthought the field, engaging with key
complex, epistemic and methodological
questions. At the same time they are
articulating the new kinds of language and
hermeneutics necessary in order to
appropriate an historically conscious and
coherent field of scientific enquiry into
contemporary Arab media, culture and
society. The book throughout reflects on and
engages in an interdisciplinary discussion on
the different facets of Arab cultural studies,
including gender, economy, epistemology,
language, method, politics, literary and cultural
criticism and much more.

Why did political Islam so readily occupy the
position of enemy ‘other’ for the United
States in the context of what the American
political leadership of the time labelled the
‘War on Terror’? In a wide-ranging analysis of
the historical and ideological roots of U.S.
discourse on political Islam, Corinna Mullin
examines the ways in which this new ‘other’

Tarik Sabry, University
of Westminster
NEW
In this groundbreaking book, Tarik Sabry is
seeking out the terrain for best understanding
the experience of being modern in
transitional societies. He adopts a dynamic,
ethnographically based approach to the
meanings of ‘modernness’ in the Arab context
and, within a relational framework, focuses on
structures of thought, everydayness and selfreferentiality to explore the process of
building a bridge that rejoins the ‘modern’ in
Arab thought with the ‘modern’ in Arab lived
experience. In bringing together modernity as
a philosophical category with the bridging
spaces of Arab everyday life, Sabry is offering
fresh methods of comprehending the
question of what it means to be modern in
the Arab world today.

Lawrence Pintak,
Washington State
University
NEW
The Arab media is in the midst of a
revolution. It is an upheaval that will impact
on questions of war and peace in the Middle
East, political and societal reform, and
relations between the West and the Arab
World. This innovative book breaks through
the stereotypes about Arab journalists to
reveal the fascinating and complex reality
–and what it means for the rest of us.
Drawing on the first broad cross-border
survey of Arab journalists, first-person
interviews with scores of reporters and
editors, and his three decades’ experience
reporting from the Middle East, Lawrence
Pintak examines how these journalists see
themselves and their mission at this critical
time in the evolution of the Arab media. He
examines how the arrival of Al Jazeera sent
shock waves across the Arab media
landscape; how hundreds of Arab satellite
channels, newspapers, magazines, and
crusading bloggers now operate, and how
journalists are under siege as governments
fight to manage their message.

During the nineteenth century, cultural
heritage became a dominant feature of the
political ideology of the European states and

East. Here, expert scholars come together to
unravel the complex processes involved in the
definition, production and consumption of
heritage and its material culture in the Middle
East, and the dynamics of the key actors
involved: NGOs, institutions, donor agencies,

RELIGIOUS MINORITIES OF THE
MODERN MIDDLE EAST
A Complete Survey
of Non-Muslim
Communities
Erica C.D. Hunter, SOAS
NEW
The subject of Islam increasingly attracts
global attention. This is to the degree that
Middle Eastern commentators sometimes
seem to assume that the region, despite wellknown Shia-Sunni distinctions, is almost
homogeneously Muslim. But non-Muslim
communities have, for many centuries, played
a vital and significant role in the area’s rich
religious and cultural fabric, and deserve
proper assessment in their own right. This
timely book offers a lively and comprehensive
survey of all the religious communities, other
than the Muslim majorities, who inhabit the
Middle East today. Separate chapters discuss
the history and beliefs of the Alevis, Baha’i,
Christians, Druze, Jews, Mandaeans,
Samaritans, Yezidis and Zoroastrians,
highlighting the unique identity and fascinating
character of each tradition. Scholars of
international repute explore the current
position of these communities, and their
relationships to their neighbours.

Memory and Dynastic Politics in Early
Modern Central Asia
Lisa Balabanlilar, Rice University,Texas
Having monopolized Central Asian politics
and culture for over a century, the Timurid
ruling elite was forced from its ancestral
homeland in Transoxiana at the turn of the
sixteenth century by an invading Uzbek tribal
confederation. The Timurids travelled south:
establishing themselves as the new rulers of a
region
roughly
comprising
modern
Afghanistan, Pakistan and northern India, and
founding what would become the Mughal
Empire (1526-1857).The last survivors of the
House of Timur, the Mughals drew invaluable
political capital from their lineage, which was
recognized for its charismatic genealogy and
court culture – the features of which are
examined here.

Mohammed Abed alJabri, University of

NEW
Since the earliest period of Islamic history,
Arab thought has been dominated by a
reverence for tradition and textual analysis. In
this groundbreaking work, the great
contemporary Arab philosopher Mohammed
Abed Al-Jabiri seeks to chart a route towards
modernity via the proposition that respect
for textualism and tradition are not
inconsistent with rationalism and that both
history and philosophy are key to the
evolution of knowledge systems and ways of
reasoning in Arab culture.This book has been
an enormous influence within the Arab world
on the ‘Islam and Modernity’ discourse. It is
published here for the first time in English and
provides a fascinating insight into the currents
of contemporary Arab thought.

THE MEDIA NEW
Kamran Bokhari,
NEW
The twenty-first 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, for
the first time, Kamran Bokhari has made it
possible to hear and to digest today’s militant
Islam in its own words. Bokhari’s carefully
contextualised selection introduces us to
radical Islamist thinking on a range of issues
such as their perception of Western concepts
of democracy, their scepticism towards the
Middle East peace process and how to deal
with the west. For anyone who wants to
understand
the
phenomenon
of
contemporary militant Islam, or who wants to
know what motivates terrorist thinking, this
book is essential reading.

ISLAMIST RADICALISATION IN
EUROPE AND THE MIDDLE
EAST NEW
Reassessing the Causes of Terrorism
George Joffé (Ed.), Cambridge University
Are today’s radicals tomorrow’s extremists?
Are adherents to Islamism necessarily
extremist or violent? Most analyses of
violence emanating from the Middle East or
from Europe’s Muslim communities tend to
assume that this is the case. Not so in this
book. Instead, with a wide-ranging and caseby-case approach, it seeks to look beyond
these assumptions, examining the specific
contexts of radicalism and asking what
creates the conditions for radicalisation.

ISLAM, ORIENTALISM AND
INTELLECTUAL HISTORY NEW
Modernity and the Politics of Exclusion
since Ibn Khaldun
Mohammad R. Salama, San Francisco State
University
As the events and aftermath of 9/11 have
shown, the relationship between Islam and
the West is deeply troubled. Here Mohammad
Salama calls for a new understanding of Islam
as a historical condition that has existed in
relationship to the West since the seventh
century. Focusing on Ibn Khaldun, the
complexities of orientalism and modernity,
and recent European as well as Arab writings
on these themes, this book is essential for all
those interested in Islamic and Middle Eastern
studies, Western and Islamic philosophies of
history, and modernity.
Contents:
Introduction;1. History and Fiction, Or, How
the Writing of History Became a Discourse of
Conquest; 2. European Modernity and the
Relocation of Islam in History; 3. The

Battles over Ibn Khaldun: Intellectual History
between Arab Nationalism and Western
Ethnocentrism; Epilogue: Historicizing the

Jonathan Steele, Foreign
How does religious fundamentalism operate
in modern global society? This two-volume
series analyses the dynamics of
fundamentalism and its relationship to the
modern state, the public sphere and
globalisation. In this first volume,
fundamentalism is approached from the
perspective of state and community building,
ideology and practices within the context of
global society, and the ways in which
fundamentalism is intertwined with issues of
politics, state power, democracy,
globalisation, political activism and political
ideology.This is an important study of an
increasingly significant and controversial
aspect of modern society.

OIL POLICIES, OIL MYTHS
The Observations of
an OPEC Insider
Fadhil J. Chalabi
NEW
The Organisation of Petroleum Exporting
Countries, commonly known as OPEC, has
been a notoriously opaque and mysterious
organization. In this book, Fadil J. Chalabi, an
insider who spent many years at the heart of
the organization as Iraq’s permanent
undersecretary for oil, invites us to discover
the intrigue and arguments that have shaped
OPEC policy since its inception in 1960. The
author interweaves his analysis with first-hand
experiences that give authenticity to
momentous events, including the infamous
1975 Vienna hostage-taking when Carlos the
Jackal kidnapped a number of OPEC
ministers, including the author. From the time
of Egypt under Nasser, Gaddafi’s Libya,
Saddam’s Iraq and Khomeini’s Iranian
revolution, Chalabi uses his unique position
and his unparallelled insider knowledge to
illuminate an organization that has, at times,
been accused of fomenting economic turmoil,
political unrest and even military action.

NEW
Zoroastrianism is one of the world’s great
ancient religions. In present-day Iran,
significant communities of Zoroastrians still
practise the rituals and teach the moral
precepts that once undergirded the officially
state-sanctioned faith of the mighty Sasanian
empire.This new, thorough and wide-ranging
introduction will appeal to anyone interested
in discovering more about the faith, and
shows why Zoroastrianism remains one of
the world’s most inspiring and perennially
fascinating systems of ethics and belief.

The Safavid era is of special significance in the
history of Iran. The age is known for its
wealth of contributions to Persian culture and
to the arts of the Islamic world, its robust
military encounters with its Ottoman and
Mughal neighbours and growing contacts with
western Europe. But little is known about the
social, cultural, commercial and diplomatic
relations of the Safavids with the rest of the
world. Iran and the World in the Safavid Age
presents the most recent research into
Safavid Iran’s foreign relations. It 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 and exciting
ways. With contributions from the leading
authorities in the field, Iran and the World in the
Safavid Age explores Iran’s relations with
other countries and cultures.

PERSIA IN CRISIS
Safavid Decline and
the Fall of Isfahan
Rudi Matthee, University
of Delaware
NEW
In this ground-breaking new book Rudi
Matthee revisits traditional sources and
introduces new ones to take a fresh look at
Safavid Iran in the century preceding the fall
of Isfahan in 1722. Matthee views Safavid Iran
as a network of precarious alliances subject
to perpetual negotiation and the society they
ruled as an uneasy balance between
conflicting forces. An increasingly detached,
palace-bound shah; a weakening link between
the capital and the outlying provinces; the
regime’s neglect of the military and its
shortsighted monetary policies combined to
exacerbate rather than redress existing
problems, leaving the country with a ruler too
feeble to hold factionalism and corruption in
check and a military unable to defend its
borders against outside attack by Ottomans
and Afghans.The scene was set for the Crisis
of 1722.

Zoroaster was one of the greatest and most
radical religious reformers in the history of
the world. The faith that he founded some
2600 years ago in a remote region of central
Asia flourished to become the bedrock of a
great empire as well as its official religion.
Zoroastrianism is still practised today in parts
of India and Iran and in smaller communities
elsewhere, where its adherents are known as
Parsis. The foundation texts of this venerable
system of belief are the founder’s own
passionate poems, known as the Gathas
(‘Songs’), and a short ritual composed soon
after his death, called the Liturgy in Seven
Chapters. These hymns are the authentic
utterances of a religious leader whose
thought was way ahead of his time, and are
among the most precious relics of human
civilisation. M.L.West’s new translation makes
these powerfully resonant texts available to a
wide audience in clear and accessible form.

A ruthless autocrat who blinded and killed his
own sons, but was revered as a hero by his
own people. A brilliant warrior who restored
his nation’s pride and territorial integrity by
waging war on the foreign occupying forces,
but chose an English knight to be his
ambassador in the west. An aesthete whose
artistic patronage made his country a centre
of art and culture, whose religious devotion
combined with realpolitik, helped to convert
Shi’i Islam into a geopolitical phenomenon.
Arguably Iran’s greatest ruler since the Arab
invasion in the 7th century AD, Shah Abbas
was an immensely complex and much
misunderstood character who, despite often
contradictory behaviour, changed the face of
the Middle East forever. David Blow draws on
a wide range of sources to present a colourful
and compelling account of the life and times
of one of history’s most extraordinary rulers.

This book provides a critical analysis of Iran’s
economic, social and political development
and shows how the path to modernity, far
from smooth, was hindered by both internal
and international factors. These included a
powerful monarchy with little interest in
administrative and economic reform, a large
aristocracy frequently holding vital provincial
governorships and frustrating effective central
government and a failure to modernise the
civil service, military, banking, finance or
communications – the essential infrastructure
for economic development. Reformers were
marginalised and business suffered. And the
all-powerful ulema were a further brake on
modernisation. On the international front, the
rivalry of Britain and Russia compounded the
problems: both acting to control Iran and to
further their own interests. Hooshang
Amirahmadi reveals the roots of present-day
challenges to modernisation and progress.

As Iran’s suspected nuclear ambitions place it
on an apparent collision cause with the
western powers and the Arab Gulf states,
understanding its regional alliances takes on a
huge strategic importance. The Lebanese
group Hizbullah, the Palestinian group Hamas
and Bashar al Asad’s Syria are all critical
players in the Arab-Israeli conflict, and the
puzzle of their relationship to their Iranian
allies has confounded diplomats for many
years.Would Hizbullah start a war on Israel’s
Northern border in the event of an Israeli airstrike on Iran? Can Syria be prised from the
alliance? How will Hamas’s negotiating
position evolve? Drawing on her unique
access to decision-makers in Lebanon,Tehran
and Damascus, Amal Saad Ghorayeb unpicks
this unusual strategic bloc of secularists and
Islamists, Arabs and Iranians, Sunni and Shia,
and seeks to provide a rigorous analysis of its
mechanics. The Iran Connection is essential
reading for anyone looking to understand the
real dynamics of today’s Middle East.

The Kurds are the largest stateless nation in
the world. They live under the jurisdiction of
four sovereign states – Iran, Iraq, Turkey and
Syria – which deny their national identity and
suppress its political and cultural
manifestations.The diversity that springs from
this division has deprived the Kurds of
ideological cohesion and political unity.
Offering a wealth of new information on the
history and politics of Kurdish nationalism,
this book also looks at the wider issues of
stateless nations, their identities, rights and
obligations and the problems such nations
pose for normative political theory which
presupposes the framework of the modern
nation state.

For minority faith groups living in nineteenthcentury Iran, religious conversion to Islam
–both voluntary and forced – was the primary
means of social integration and assimilation.
However, why was it that some Persian Jews
instead embraced the emergent Baha’i Faith,
which was subject to harsher persecution
than Judaism? Mehrdad Amanat explores the
conversion experiences of Jewish families
during this time, and examines the fluid,
multiple religious identities that many
converts adopted.

When Mohammed Khatami stormed to his
1997 election victory in a landslide result, the
world waited anxiously for the reforms and
radical changes that he would bring to the
Iranian Presidency. By the end of his term in
2005, general disillusion had spread among his
supporters. But when in early 2009 Khatami
again announced his candidacy for the
Presidency, he was greeted with massive
enthusiasm and support. The Ahmadinejad
period of the previous four years had
dramatically restored the fortunes of this
mild-mannered, cerebral cleric who sought to
bring Iran into the twenty-first century, end
its international isolation, mend relations with
the US and take its place as the leading
regional power. But who is this enigmatic
cleric, so little known in the West, whose
grasp of Iran’s realities seems so much firmer
than that of many of the secular figures
around him? This book for the first time
reveals the background, formation and
thinking of a man who may yet change the
face of politics in the Middle East.

In the aftermath of the Iranian Revolution, the
government of the Islamic Republic initiated a
stringent anti-drug campaign that included
fining addicts, imprisonment, physical
punishment and even the death penalty.
Despite these measures, drug use was, and is
still, commonplace. Drugs, Deviancy and
Democracy in Iran is thus a unique account of
Iran’s recent social and political history,
drawing important conclusions about the
complexity of state power, and the growing
impact of civil society.

The relationship between the Islamic Republic
of Iran and the western World is fraught with
challenges and tensions. In order to generate
the capacity for greater engagement and
dialogue, there is a need for the west to
better understand the complex ideological
developments that are central to Iran. Majid
Mohammadi charts the central concepts and
nuances of the ideological map of postrevolutionary Iran, and examines the rise and
development of Shi’i Islamism. He recognises
that the Islamic Republic of Iran and Iranian
political discourse are the outcome of
contesting perspectives and ideologies.

BABYLON
The History of a
Legend and its
Afterlives
Michael Seymour, British
Museum
NEW
One of the greatest cities of the ancient
world, Babylon has been eclipsed by its own
sinful reputation. For two thousand years the
real, physical metropolis lay buried while
another, ghostly city lived on, engorged on
accounts of its own destruction. More
recently the site of Babylon has been the
centre of major excavation: yet the
spectacular results of this work have done
little to displace the many other fascinating
ways in which the city has endured and
reinvented itself in culture. Why has Babylon
so creatively fired the human imagination?
Why has it been so enthralling to so many,
and for so long? In exploring answers, Michael
Seymour ranges across art, archaeology,
history and literature. From Hammurabi and
Nebuchadnezzar to Brueghel, Rembrandt,
Voltaire, William Blake and modern
interpreters like Umberto Eco, Italo Calvino
and Gore Vidal, the author explores a carnival
of disparate sources dominated by the
intoxicating idea of depravity.

Hammurabi was the sixth king of ancient
Babylon and also its greatest. Expanding the
role and influence of the Babylonian city-state
into an imperium that crushed its rivals and
dominated the entire fertile plain of
Mesopotamia, Hammurabi (who ruled c.
1792-1750 BCE) transformed a minor
kingdom into the regional superpower of its
age. But this energetic monarch, whose
geopolitical and military strategies were
unsurpassed in his time, was more than just a
war-leader or empire-builder. Renowned for
his visionary Code of Laws, Hammurabi’s
famous codex – written on a stele in
Akkadian, and publicly displayed so that all
citizens could read it – pioneered a new kind
of lawmaking. The Code’s 282 specific legal
injunctions, alleged to have been divinely
granted by the god Marduk, remain influential
to this day, and offer the historian fascinating
parallels
with
the
biblical
Ten
Commandments.

The Qiyan in the Early Abbasid Era
F. Matthew Caswell
From the refined Geisha of the Imperial
Court to the learned hetaerae of Ancient
Greece, the captivating history of courtesans
and slave girls transcends countless cultural
boundaries and fields of academic study. The
Slave Girls of Baghdad explores the origins,
education and art of the ‘qiyan’ – indentured
girls and women who entertained and
entranced the caliphs and aristocrats who
worked the labyrinths of power within ninthcentury Baghdad and throughout the Abbasid
Empire. Through a detailed analysis of Islamic
law, historical sources and poetry, F. Matthew
Caswell examines the qiyans’ unique place in
Abbasid society and their contested moral
standing, providing a comprehensive overview
and cultural comparison of an elusive and
alluring institution.This fascinating history will
be essential reading for all interested in the
story of slavery along with the rich world of
the Abbasid Empire more widely.

MAPPING FRONTIERS ACROSS

Geography,Translation and the

Travis Zadeh, Haverford College,
Pennsylvania
The story of the 9th-century caliphal mission
from Baghdad to discover the legendary
barrier against the apocalyptic nations of Gog
and Magog mentioned in the Quran, has been
either dismissed as superstition or treated as
historical fact. By exploring the intellectual
and literary history surrounding the
production and early reception of this
adventure, Travis Zadeh traces the
conceptualization of frontiers within early
‘Abbasid society and re-evaluates the modern
treatment of marvels and monsters inhabiting
medieval Islamic descriptions of the world.

Iraq was much stronger and better
administered by the 1870s, than it had been
when the Ottomans imposed direct rule over

original source documents, Ebubekir Ceylan

THREE KINGS IN
BAGHDAD
The Tragedy of Iraq’s
Monarchy
NEW PAPERBACK EDITION
Since 2003, over 4 million Iraqis have been
forced to flee their homes, in what amounts
to one of the largest people movements in
modern times, far exceeding the Palestinian
outflow after 1948. Despite media reports of
an improved security situation in Iraq, the
majority of refugees are still afraid to return.
The social, economic, political and security
consequences of such an event are huge. In
this rigorous and timely book, Joseph Sassoon
explores the underlying trends of Iraq’s
refugee flow: which class, ethnic and sectarian
groups are going where and how. Based on
extensive original research, he examines the
economic impact of this exodus on Iraq itself,
and on the host countries of the region:
Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. He analyses
international policy on the refugee issue, and
assesses the options for return and
resettlement. Iraqi Refugees is both the first
and the definitive guide to what will come to
be seen as one of the most significant issues
affecting the Middle East.

Memoirs of an Iraqi

Mohammed Jamali,
Edited John King
NEW
A pivotal figure in the history of modern Iraq,
Hashemite politician Mohammed Fadhel
Jamali embodied many of his country’s
contradictions. A deeply pious Muslim, he
caused a furore by using his influence with
King Faisal to advocate for universal
education and the emancipation of women.
A committed Arab Nationalist and ardent
supporter of the Palestinian cause, as Foreign
Minister and Iraqi representative to the
United Nations he helped steer Iraq into the
Baghdad Pact with Britain and the US. This
first-hand account of his struggle to place Iraq
at the centre of an Arab nationalist alliance in
a deeply polarised world order offers unique
insights in to the politics, personalities and
plots of Arab nationalism. Jamali offers a
candid account of Iraq’s relationships with the
other Arab states at this critical juncture,
including its relationships with Syria and
Nasser’s Egypt, from the early 1940s to the
overthrow of the monarchy in 1958.

BATTLE IN IRAQ
Letters and Diaries of
the First World War
Over ninety years since their absorption into
the modern Iraqi state, the Kurdish people of
Iraq still remain an apparent anomaly in the
modern world – a nation without a state. In
The Kurds of Iraq, Mahir Aziz explores this
incongruity, and 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?

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE
PALESTINIAN
NEW

The word ‘apartheid’ evokes the ideology of
racial segregation which dominated South
Africa for so many years. Yet opinionformers, including former US President Jimmy
Carter, are increasingly using the word
‘apartheid’ to describe the situation of Arabs
in Israel and the Occupied Territories. The
use of the word ‘apartheid’ is highly emotive,
and has serious implications for international
policy. The concept lies at the heart of the
growing trades union movement to boycott
Israeli products. Yet in the heat of debate, noone has unpacked the South Africa analogy,
and brought on board the expertise of
historians,
lawyers,
journalists
and
policymakers familiar with the politics of both
countries. Now for the first time one of
Israel’s most celebrated academics, Ilan Pappé,
has gathered together these perspectives in
an accessible format which lays out the legal,
political and social dimensions of apartheid,
and provides an authoritative assessment of
its relevance to Israel.
What It Means to be Palestinian is a narrative
of narratives, a collection of personal stories,
remembered feelings and reconstructed
experiences by different Palestinians whose
lives were changed and shaped by history.
The book begins with the 1936 revolt against
British rule in Palestine and ends in 1993, with
the Oslo peace agreement that changed the
nature and form of the national struggle. It is
based on in-depth interviews and
conversations with Palestinians, male and
female, old and young, rich and poor, religious
and secular, in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Israel
and the Occupied Territories. Presented as
remembered personal narratives and as
‘social’ histories, these conversations provide
a deep & intimate account of what it means
to be Palestinian in the 21st century.

Transnationalism, Communications
and the Reinvention of Identity
Miriyam Aouragh, University of Oxford
For Palestine’s diaspora and exiled
communities, the internet has become an
important medium for the formation of
Palestinian national and transnational identity.
Miriyam Aouragh looks at the internet as
both a space and an instrument for linking
Palestinian diasporas in Palestine, Jordan and
Lebanon. She closely examines the uses and
limits of internet technology under
conditions of war, along with the ways in
which virtual participation enables the
generation of new ideals for political
reconciliation
and
self-determination.
Through
the
internet,
participants
reconstruct a virtual ‘Palestinian homeland’,
gain a space for recovering the past, for
overcoming issues of mobility, and for
generating social change.This book provides a
new angle on those affected by the IsraeliPalestine conflict, and furthers understanding
about the connection between electronic
media, politics and national identity more
widely.

Conde de Ballobar,
edited by Roberto
Mazza, Western Illionois
University
NEW
When World War I broke out in Europe in
the autumn of 1914, a young diplomat was
sent to Jerusalem to take charge of the
Spanish consulate in the city. Antonio de la
Cierva y Lewita, better known as Conde de
Ballobar, recorded the events he witnessed
and described his experiences and opinions in
a unique document that has become an
invaluable resource for historians. Ballobar’s
diary provides an unparalleled insight into late
Ottoman Jerusalem – and the upheavals of
wartime life in the city – and includes a
detailed account of the battle amongst the
local churches over control of the city’s holy
places. Also touching upon the spread of
Zionism and the establishment of British rule,
Ballobar writes as a privileged observer of an
exceptionally complex historical period.
Available in English for the first time, this
book will be essential reading for students
and scholars of the late-Ottoman Empire and
World War I in the Middle East.

PALESTINE IN ISRAELI SCHOOL
BOOKS NEW
Ideology and Propaganda in Education
Nurit Peled-Elhanan, Tel Aviv University
Each year, Israel’s young men and women are
drafted into compulsory military service and
are required to engage directly in the IsraeliPalestinian conflict. This conflict is by its
nature intensely complex and is played out
under the full glare of international security.
So, how does Israel’s education system
prepare its young people for this? How is
Palestine, and the Palestinians against whom
these young Israelis will potentially be
required to use force, portrayed in the school
system? Nurit Peled-Elhanan argues that the
textbooks used in the school system are
laced with a pro-Israel ideology, and that they
play a part in priming Israeli children for
military service.

RADICAL CHRISTIANITY IN THE
MIDDLE EAST NEW
Liberation and Theology in the Middle
East
Samuel J. Kuruvilla
Christianity arose from the lands of biblical
Palestine and, regardless of its twentieth
century association with the Arab-Israeli
conflict, to Christians around the world it
remains first and foremost the birthplace of
Christianity. Nevertheless the size of the
Christian population among Palestinians
today living in Israel and the Palestinian
territories is now relatively insignificant. Here
Samuel J. Kuruvilla argues that Christian
Palestinians often employ politically astute as
well as theologically radical means in their
efforts to appear relevant as a minority
community within Israeli and Palestinian
societies.

NEW IN PAPERBACK
Rabbi David Goldberg, one of today’s most
respected and outspoken Jewish leaders,
grapples with the dilemmas of contemporary
Jewishness with characteristic candour, and
sketches the emerging faultlines in the Jewish
sense of identity. He offers up a completely
fresh reading of Jewish history, arguing that
the narrative of relentless woe and suffering
popularised by nineteenth-century writers
such as George Eliot was based on a highly
selective reading of the past. Goldberg
retraces the history of the Jews, and rejects
the mythology of eternal victimhood. Instead,
he focuses on the survival strategies that have
been pursued throughout the centuries. He
contrasts the pragmatic flexibility of the
Jewish Diaspora with the military
assertiveness of modern Israel. With wit,
insight and compassion he highlights the
growing gulf between Israeli and Diaspora
Jewishness. This book will stimulate, engage
and provoke readers of all beliefs and
cultures.

POWER AND POLICY IN SYRIA NEW
Intelligence Services, Foreign Relations
and Democracy in the Modern Middle
East
Radwan Ziadeh, Harvard University
In an unstable Middle East, beset by regional
tensions and repercussions of the global war
on terror, Syria is a key player. The bloodless
coup by General Hafez al-Asad, in 1970, put in
place a powerful autocratic machinery at the
core of the state which continues till today
under the control of his son Bashar. Here
Radwan Ziadeh presents a fresh and
penetrating analysis of Syria’s political
structure – a ‘despotic’ state monopoly, a
bureaucratic climate marked by fear, and the
administrative structure through which
centralized control is exercised. With a focus
on Syria’s intelligence services, Power and
Policy in Syria is essential reading for all those
interested in Syria, the modern Middle East,
International Relations and Security Studies.

SYRIA AND THE USA
NEW
Washington’s Relations with Damascus
from Wilson to Eisenhower
Sami Moubayed
The early years of Syrian-US relations can be
described as hopes dashed, hopes revived.
Although American missionaries had visited
the Middle East in the nineteenth century, it
was not until after World War I that Syrian
and US dignitaries met in an official capacity. In
the aftermath of World War II the relationship
took a new turn, as the US was accused of
involvement in the series of coups and
counter-coups that rocked the young republic
from 1949 until the ill-fated Syrian-Egyptian
union of 1958. Engagement and the right to
self-determination were the rule of the game
in the post-Wilson era, but this quickly
transformed into espionage and covert
activity during the Cold War when the US saw
Syria as a Soviet proxy in the Middle East.
Featuring original research and previously
unpublished material, this book will be
essential reading for scholars of the Middle
East and US diplomatic History and
twentieth-century International Relations.

Nikolaos van Dam
NEW
As Syria begins to open its economy to the
West, and continues to play a pivotal, if
enigmatic role, in Middle Eastern politics, this
new, updated edition of Van Dam’s classic
account of Syrian politics interrogates the
relationship between identity, class and power
in the Baathist system which has ruled Syria
since 1963. In particular he looks at how
Hafez al Asad, the current President’s father,
consolidated power through an Alawi military
elite, and examines how his son, Bashar al
Asad, has managed the system he inherited.
As
well
as
encompassing
recent
developments, the new edition covers source
material not previously available, and thus
remains a comprehensive as well as a
rigorous account of modern Syrian politics.

On May 25th 2000 Israeli occupation forces
withdrew from South Lebanon after 22 years
of occupation. The Lebanese media’s role in
achieving liberation over this period is
significant, through campaigns conducted to
unify the Lebanese people against their
foreign occupier and in support of the
Lebanese resistance in South Lebanon. This
book investigates the culture and
performance of Lebanese journalism in this
setting. Zahera Harb is also presenting here
an alternative interpretation of propaganda
under conditions of foreign occupation and
the struggle against that occupation. She
identifies the characteristics of ‘liberation
propaganda’ through the coverage and
experience of the two Lebanese TV stations
Tele Liban and Al Manar within the historical,
cultural, organisational and religious contexts
in which they operated, and how these
elements shaped their professional practice
and their news values.

Theodor Hanf, German

NEW IN PAPERBACK
This book combines a
vast encyclopaedic history of the war in
Lebanon with a penetrating sociological
analysis. Tracing the war to its origins, the
author shows that it has been primarily a
surrogate war over Palestine which escalated
into a conflict between the diverse Lebanese
communities, each afraid of being the player
left standing in a macabre game of musical
chairs. Hanf’s central theme is the problem of
conflict and conflict regulation between these
groups. How were conflicts regulated
peacefully before the war? How did the
country come to be the battlefield of both a
surrogate war and a civil war? How do the
Lebanese view what has happened in their
country? What are their aspirations and how
do they conceive a realistic settlement? Is
there any prospect of re-establishing
coexistence between different elements of
Lebanese society? The author sets out to
answer these and other important questions
using a wide range of literature as well as his
own extensive research in the country.

The Political Economy of Trade and
Economic Reform in the Middle East
Relations between the United States and the
Middle East are going through a period of
significant change in which the use of force in
pursuit of national interests has proved to be
increasingly counter-productive. A new policy
direction has been adopted which seeks to
promote economic integration, development
and cooperation. The recent proliferation of
US-Middle East free trade agreements is a
corner-stone of this new foreign policy
approach. Imad El-Anis here offers an analysis
of how free trade and economic integration
can impact US-Middle East relations by using
the Jordan-US relationship as an example.

Imperial Strategy, King Abdullah I and
the Zionist Movement
Tancred Bradshaw
In the wake of the establishment of the State
of Israel in 1948, it has often been alleged,
King Abdullah I of Jordan and the Zionist
movements colluded to partition Mandate
Palestine between them, while Great Britain,
the retreating imperial power, gave them tacit
approval to do so. Here, Tancred Bradshaw
challenges these allegations, looking at the
complex and often strained relations
between the emerging states of Jordan, Israel
and the at first hegemonic, and then
crumbling, British Empire.

Qatar plays a crucial part in the Middle East
today. With the second greatest natural gas
resources in the region, Qatar's economic
clout is considerable. At the same time the
Qatar story is replete with paradoxes: the
state hosts the Al-Jazeera media network, an
influential expression of Arab nationalism and
anti-Americanism, while also hosting the
principal US naval base in the region. Its
leaders, like Saudi Arabia’s, adhere to the
Wahhabi form of Sunni Islam, yet Qatar eyes
its Saudi neighbours with suspicion. It is a
fervent champion of the Palestinian cause, yet
welcomes the Israeli Foreign Minister to
present the Jewish state’s case in its capital,
Doha. With this groundbreaking modern
history, Allen Fromherz presents a full
portrait which analyses these paradoxes and
Qatar’s growing regional influence within a
broader historical context.

Diplomacy, Security

Matteo Legrenzi,
University of Ottawa
NEW
The GCC, made up of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain,
Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the UAE, is one of
the most resilient sub-regional organizations
in the world, and the most successful in the
one in the Arab world. It has been the forum
through which much internal security cooperation in this volatile sub-region has taken
place, as well as the main representative for
the UAE’s territorial dispute with Iran over
the Aub Musa and Tunbs Islands. Very little is
known however about how the organization
really works: how decisions are actually taken,
as opposed to how this process is formally
constituted in its charters, and what the
GCC’s real impact on member states, the
Gulf and international relations is. Drawing on
cutting-edge IR theoretical perspectives as
well as unique first-hand access to GCC
decision-makers, Matteo Legrenzi explains
the mechanisms of Gulf cooperation – and its
limitations – in the context of economic
globalisation, diplomatic regionalisation and
the rise of Iran.

Linking the lawless Horn of Africa to Saudi
Arabia and the Gulf, Yemen is a strategically
vital country on the brink of collapse, whose
implosion, combined with a growing Al Qaeda
presence, could have consequences for the
whole Middle East and beyond.
Ginny Hill takes us inside this fascinating and
complex country, introducing us to a range of
characters; Somali refugees, tribal warlords,
Qat-chewing philosophers, corrupt politicians
and gun-runners. She shows us the
transnational networks of crime, peoplesmuggling and terrorism which sweep
through the country, the legacy of civil war,
and how the most vibrant democracy in the
Middle East became mired in corruption and
separatist violence. Part reportage, part
history, and part informed analysis, this is an
indispensable guide to the little-understood
country which is about to dominate
international headlines.
STATE BUILDING AND COUNTER

Political, Military and Diplomatic
Relations at the end of Empire
James Worrall, University of Leeds
In the depths of the Cold War and in the
wake of Britain’s announcement of its
intention to withdraw ‘East of Suez’ by the
end of 1971, Britain was faced with the stark
reality of a Marxist rebellion in the Dhofar
province of Oman. State Building and Counter
Insurgency in Oman offers an exploration of
the attempts by officials and politicians in
Whitehall and the Gulf to reconcile attempts
to protect national interests and create an
effective, centralised Omani administration
and security bodies, whilst maintaining the
image of strategic withdrawal and the
sovereign independence of Oman.

Their once traditional societies now host

South Yemen has come to be seen as a
potential Al-Qaeda stronghold and at the
heart of a separatist movement threatening
to rip apart southern Arabia. How has this
country of forbidding mountains and arid
deserts gone from British colony to
communist state and then to ‘terrorist base’
in just half a century? In Yemen Divided, author
and Middle East expert Noel Brehony tells for
the first time the comprehensive history of
the People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen
(PDRY). He explains the power politics that
came to form a communist republic a few
hundred miles from the holiest site in Islam,
and the process and conflicts that led to
Yemeni unification in 1990.The impact of the
PDRY is still felt today as Saudi and
government armed forces engage with
Houthis in the North and unrest continues to
simmer across the South. Yemen Divided is an
important book for anyone wanting to
understand why Yemen has veered towards
massive instability.

The geopolitical importance of the Gulf
region is a source both of great interest and
great tension. David Commins here provides
an in-depth narrative of the modern political
history of the Gulf States, giving a
comprehensive and accessible account of
their recent development and strategic
importance. Focusing primarily on economic,
cultural, religious and social themes from the
18th century to the present, this book
highlights the influence of British imperialism
and subsequent US hegemony in the region.
The motifs of geography and hierarchy are
woven throughout the book as it covers
important topics including the influence of
the Ottoman Empire, the rise of Arab
dynasties, oil wealth and modern prosperity,
and the formation of the Gulf States, as we
know them today. With the importance and
influence of the Gulf States continuing to
increase, this book will become invaluable
reading for scholars and students of
international relations, political economy and
modern history.

In 1800 the British army’s reputation was in
tatters, having experienced nothing but failure
in wars across the world for forty years; at
home, a divided cabinet had to face the
problem of Egypt, which had been occupied
by Napoleon’s Army of the Orient since 1798.
The task of ejecting France fell to a disparate
band of soldiers led by Sir Ralph Abercromby
which, against all the odds, defeated the
French army on 21 March 1801, bringing
Napoleon’s Egyptian Campaign to a definitive
and crushing end. Piers Mackesy vividly brings
to life the events of the battle, revealing how
Abercromby’s brilliantly executed strategy
restored the honour of the British army and
averted disaster for the Empire.

FROM MISSION TO MODERNITY
Evangelicals, Reformers and Education
in Nineteenth Century Egypt NEW
Paul Sedra, University in Burnaby, Canada
In this pioneering account of Egyptian
educational history, Paul Sedra describes how
the Egyptian state under Muhammad Ali Pasha
sought to forge a new relationship with
children during the nineteenth century.
Through the introduction of modern forms of
education, brought to Egypt by evangelical
missions, the state aimed to ensure children’s
loyal service to the state, whether through
conscription or forced labour. However, these
schemes of educational reform, most
prominently Joseph Lancaster’s monitorial
system, led to unforeseen consequences as
students in Egypt’s new modern schools
resisted efforts to control their behaviour in
creative and complex ways, and these acts of
resistance themselves led to new forms of
political identity.

While the western perception of the ‘the

Occidentalisms in the Arab World not only

also provides new insight on the interplay
between ideology and image in the

THE POLITICS OF ART AND
CULTURE IN MODERN EGYPT
Aesthetics, Ideology and NationBuilding
Keith Kyle
NEW
On 26 July 1956, the British Empire received
a blow from which it would never recover. On
this day, Egypt’s President Gamal Abdul
Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal Company,
one of the gems of Britain’s imperial portfolio.
It was to be a fateful day for Britain as a world
power. Britain, France and Israel subsequently
colluded in attacking Egypt, ostensibly – in the
case of Britain and France – to protect the
Suez Canal but in reality in an attempt to
depose Nasser. The US opposition to this
scheme forced an ignominious withdrawal,
leaving Nasser triumphant and marking a
decisive end to Britain’s imperial era.
In this, the seminal work on the Suez Crisis,
Keith Kyle draws on a wealth of documentary
evidence to tell this fascinating political,
military and diplomatic story. Including new
introductory material, this revised edition of a
classic work will be essential reading for
anyone interested in the history of the
twentieth century, military history and the
end of empire.

During much of the twentieth century, art and
cultural production in Egypt operated against
a backdrop of political crisis. Two central
issues crossed and interacted with the arts
and aesthetics of the era: the Egyptian peasant
struggles against capitalist agriculture in the
1920s; and the problem of nationalism and the
state before and after the 1952 revolutionary
coup. Patrick Kane here situates key Egyptian
art movements in their political, social and
historical contexts.

Morocco has long been a mythical land, firmly
rooted in the European colonial imagination.
For more than a century it has been
appropriated by travellers, explorers, writers
and artists. It is just these images and
imaginings that are now being reconstructed
for nostalgic consumption. In Moroccan
Dreams, Claudio Minca examines this
aestheticised re-enactment of the colonial,
exploring the ways in which Moroccans
themselves have become complicit in the rewriting of their homes and lives. Richly
illustrated, the book provides a fascinating
journey that will engage and delight all those
enamoured of Morocco and its extraordinary
geographies.

After the 1989 Islamist coup in Sudan, the

law throughout the country. However, by
2005, with the signing of the Comprehensive
Peace Agreement ending 22 years of civil war,
the government agreed to halt its policy of
Islamisation in the South. Shari’a and Islamism

OTTOMAN HAIFA
A History of Four
Centuries under
Turkish Rule
Alex Carmel
NEW
Among The Ottomans introduces two unique
diary accounts written by two generations of
the same family in the declining years of the
Ottoman Empire.Written in the heart of the
crumbling Ottoman Empire, Marie Lyster’s
World War One diaries describe the political
and social climate of Constantinople as Allied
troops swept through Turkey, wreaking havoc
on the country’s infrastructure and forcing
residents, regardless of their national
affiliations, to endure the hardships of war.
Just 200 miles away in the Dardanelles, her
son Henry fought alongside the Greek
Comitajis, as they clashed with the Bulgarians.
Later, as the Military Governor of Eastern
Thrace, he witnessed the rise of Turkish
Nationalism and the struggle for control of
the fragmented pieces of the fallen empire.
Published for the first time, these two diaries
provide a unique insight into the final years of
the Ottoman Empire.
Under Ottoman rule, the city of Haifa, located
at the southern point of the largest bay on the
coast of what today is Israel, was transformed
from a scarcely inhabited fortress town to a
major modern city. This book details the
history of Haifa under the Ottomans during
the period 1516-1918. Alex Carmel uses a
variety of original sources to uncover the
realities of life in Haifa under Ottoman rule
and paints a vivid picture of the development
of the city in this era. Carmel’s work has
become the benchmark of the historiography
of Israel’s third largest city and remains to this
day, the best-known and most highly regarded
survey of Haifa under Ottoman rule.This, the
first English edition of Ottoman Haifa, will be
essential reading for all historians of the
Ottoman Empire and the Middle East.

From Global Imperial Power to
Absolutist States
Mehmet Sinan Birdal
The Holy Roman Empire and the Ottoman
Empire, especially under their charismatic
leaders Charles V and Suleyman I, were major
empires of the early-modern period. Both
exercised global power as, respectively,
leaders of the universal
‘res publica
Christiana’ and ‘dar-es Islam’. However, both
lost supreme power in the course of the 17th
and 18th centuries and began the
transformation to absolutist nation states.
This account of the important transition to
modern notions of statehood is vital for
understanding the reform strategies of both
empires in administration, taxation, conduct
of foreign policy and formation of the modern
state. Both empires adopted differing
strategies of survival and development:
Austria’s ‘Enlightened Despotism’ and the
Austro-Hungarian Empire traced their origins
to the Holy Roman Empire; while the
Ottoman Empire, reformed and modernised,
developed into the nation state of the
Republic of Turkey.

Reflections of
Western Art from
the Ottoman Empire
to the Turkish
Republic
Wendy M.K. Shaw
NEW
The late Ottoman Empire witnessed
widespread and dramatic reform, which was
vividly reflected in its visual culture. However,
while other political and social developments
in this period have received much attention,
the interaction between Ottoman and
western artists and artistic practices is less
widely understood. Ottoman Painting explores
fully this complex and fascinating relationship
for the first time, using vivid examples and
drawing many intriguing and original
connections.
Wendy Shaw demonstrates how during the
19th century – the very era when rapidly
proliferating modernist artistic movements in
the West were giving up traditional styles,
techniques and functions of art – artists in the
Ottoman Empire and Turkey were harnessing
these discarded traditions as a novel and
modern means of communication.

FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN THE

International Trade and Relations in
the Late Nineteenth Century
Necla Geyikdagi, Yeditepe University,
Istanbul
As the borders of the Ottoman Empire
crumbled throughout the latter half of the
nineteenth century, unprecedented amounts
of foreign capital poured in from investors
who were eager to capitalize on the country’s
sparsely regulated industries. Economist
Necla Geyikdagi sheds light on the motives,
means and policies which shaped foreign
direct investment (FDI) in the Ottoman
Empire throughout the late-nineteenth
century.The book weighs political motivation
against economic incentive in examining the
trade policies of the major capital exporting
countries. Drawing from key speeches on
foreign trade policy, personal journals and
popular publications, Geyikdagi provides
unique insight into the network of foreign
investors and politicians that lay behind the
channels of direct investment within the ailing
Empire.

Economy; 2. Foreign Capital Borrowing; 3.

THE YOUNG OTTOMANS
NEW
Turkish Critics of the Eastern Question
in the Late Nineteenth Century
Nazan Çiçek, Ankara University
The Eastern Question, as it was termed by
the European Powers in the nineteenth
century, was a debate primarily concerned
with the issue of ‘what to do with the Turk?’.
The Ottoman Empire had become known as
the ‘sick man of Europe’ following its gradual
decline since the eighteenth century, and its
demise would be highly problematic for the
crowned heads of Europe. This unique book
focuses on the intellectual and political
dynamics of the first Ottoman political
opposition in the modern sense, the so-called
Young Ottomans.
Contents:
1. The Cretan Insurrection 1866-1869; 2. The
Question of Equality Between Muslims and
Non-Muslims and the Foreign Intervention

The island of Crete under Ottoman rule in

original perspective on the social, political and
ideological transformation of Ottoman Crete
within the nationalist context of the late
nineteenth century. It focuses on the Cretan
revolts of 1896 and 1897, and examines the
establishment of the autonomous Cretan

STOLEN BOYS OF THE OTTOMAN
EMPIRE NEW
The Child Levy as Public Spectacle and
Political Instrument
Charles Argo, Ball state University, Indiana
The infamous Ottoman devsirme – the levy
and enslavement of young male subjects from
the Christian regions of the empire for palace
and military service by the Turks – has been
traditionally understood as a mechanism of
both elite recruitment and Muslim
conversion. Here Charles Argo investigates
the political and cultural resonance of the act
itself; an act that reproduced in spectacle
form Ottoman ideologies of dynastic
legitimacy and political hegemony amongst its
Christian subjects. Viewed thus, the levy
transcends its utility as a recruitment
mechanism, and becomes an important – even
iconic – display of political will that
significantly shaped the cultural reality for
Balkan peoples under Ottoman rule.

LATE OTTOMAN PALESTINE
The Period of Young Turk Rule
NEW
Yuval Ben-Bassat, University of Haifa and
Eyal Ginio, Hebrew University of Jerusalem
The decisive consequences of the Young Turk
Revolution of 1908 had ramifications over the
entire Ottoman Empire – and the Ottoman
territory of Palestine was no exception. Late
Ottoman Palestine examines the impact of
Young Turk policies and reforms on local
societies and administration, using Palestine as
a prism through which to explore the impact
of the Revolution in the provincial arena far
from the administrative and political centre of
the capital. It thus sheds light upon the last
decade of Ottoman rule in Palestine, crucially
dealing with the roots of Jewish-Arab conflict
in the area and the early crystallization of
Arab, Palestinian and Zionist identities, along
with that of an Ottoman imperial identity.

Özgür Mutlu Ulus, University of Leiden
In 1960s Turkey, the armed forces and the
radical leftist movement provided two very
dynamic, but very different, political forces.
However, somewhat surprisingly, the majority
of radical leftists believed in the revolutionary
potential of the armed forces in overthrowing
the current regime and replacing it with a
quasi-socialist one. This book considers the
changing perspectives of the radical leftist
movement towards the political role of the
military in Turkey.

When Religion Meets
Politics
Mirela Bogdani
Erik J. Zürcher,
Christine Laidlaw
For more than two centuries following its
formation in 1581, the Levant Company
enjoyed a monopoly of British trade with the
Ottoman Empire and provided Britain’s
diplomatic representation at the Sultan’s
court and throughout the Ottoman
territories. Rather than focusing on ‘the
Turkey trade’ itself, or on the merchants who
engaged in it, Christine Laidlaw examines the
supporting cast of Britons – officials,
clergymen, physicians and accompanying
family members – who lived and worked
alongside the merchants at the Company’s
three principal trading posts at Istanbul, Izmir
and Aleppo during the eighteenth century.
This unique perspective will be invaluable for
historians of the eighteenth century and the
Ottoman Empire.
TURKEY AND THE DILEMMA OF
EU ACCESSION
NEW
The grand narrative of Turkish history from
the late Ottoman Empire to the foundation
of the Republic of Turkey in 1923 and
beyond to the end of Atatürk’s period has
consistently implied a fundamental break
from the world of the Ottomans and of
Atatürk.The strongly revisionist theme of
the book counters the ‘official historiography
of the Turkish Republic’ based on Atatürk’s
famous ‘Nutuk’ speech in 1927 proclaiming
how ‘a great nation gained its independence
and founded a national and modern state
based on the latest principles of science and
technology’ and represented a complete
break with the past. Erik Zürcher shows
that Kemal’s ‘ideological toolkit’, which
included positivism, militarism, nationalism
and a state-centred world view, was shared
by an earlier generation of Young Turks.

What impact do issues of culture, religion and
identity have on Turkey’s chances of joining
the EU? Are religious and cultural factors per
se the primary obstacle to Turkish accession,
or is it their interaction with other factors
that is prolonging and complicating Turkey’s
progress towards EU membership? Mirela
Bogdani here analyses the complex range of
issues that are influencing the process of
Turkey’s accession to the EU, assesses the
positions of different European actors
towards Turkey’s pursuit of EU membership
and identifies the reasons for the European
opposition. She also analyses the issues of
political Islam, multiculturalism and the
compatibility of Islam with democracy. This
book will be an important resource for
anyone interested in EU politics, EU
enlargement policy, EU-Turkey relations, the
relationship between religion and politics,
political
Islam, multiculturalism
and
supranational integration.

The Kemalist Influence in Cyprus and
the Caucasus
Turkey’s foreign policy is usually represented
as essentially peaceful, using diplomacy and
multilateralism in the resolution of its
conflicts with other states. Here, Umut Uzer
offers a necessary corrective to this standard
analysis by revealing the Kemalist influence in
Turkey’s state ideology. This defined the
identity of the state as Turkish, embracing
both Turkish and Turkic peoples as ‘Turks’, and
resulting in responsibilities towards Turks
residing beyond its borders and a more
engaged foreign policy that ranged from
declarations of support for ethnic kin outside
Turkey to outright takeover of territory.

many of its chief minorities.The Zazas are one
such group: a Kurdish people speaking the
Zaza dialect, and living as a distinct people in
the eastern Anatolian provinces. Mehmet S.
Kaya here investigates all aspects of Zaza life:
kinship, economy, culture, identity, gender
relations, patriarchy and religion. His
fieldwork among local communities in the
Zaza area sheds light upon the ways in which
this Middle Eastern minority has maintained
its way of life and cultural identity in today’s
globalised society.This book provides valuable
insights into a little-known people, and will be
of interest within the fields of Middle East
Studies, Islamic Studies, Minority Studies and
Diaspora Studies.

Since the fall of the Ottoman Empire, Turkey
has seen a complete re-imagining of its
political, cultural and social landscape. Burçe
Çelik argues that technology has been
integral to this transformative process,
showing how take-up of modern
technologies, such as the cell or mobile
phone, has been embraced particularly by
those who most easily absorbed new ideals
about Turkey and modern Turkishness.

Yezidism is a fascinating part of the rich
cultural mosaic of the Middle East.Yezidis
emerged for the first time in the 12th
century in the Kurdish mountains of
northern Iraq.Their religion, which has
become notorious for its associations with
‘devil worship’, is in fact an intricate
syncretic system of belief. Birgül Açikyildiz
offers a comprehensive appraisal of Yezidi
religion, society and culture.Written without
presupposing any prior knowledge about
Yezidism, and in an accessible and readable
style, her book examines Yezidis not only
from a religious point of view but as a
historical and social phenomenon. She
throws light on the origins of Yezidism, and
charts its historical development as part of
the general history of the Kurds.This richly
Illustrated book will have strong appeal to all
those with an interest in the culture of the
Kurds, as well as the wider region.

Britain’s military involvement in Afghanistan is
a contentious subject, yet it is often forgotten
that the current conflict is in fact the fourth in
a string of such wars dating back as far as the
early nineteenth century. Aiming to protect
the British territories in India from the
expanding Russian empire, the British fought a
series of conflicts on Afghan territory
between 1838 and 1919. The Anglo-Afghan
wars of the 19th and early 20th centuries
were ill-conceived and led to some of the
worst military disasters ever sustained by
British forces in this part of the world, with
poor strategy in the First Afghan War
resulting in the annihilation of 16,000 soldiers
and civilians in a single week. In his new book,
Jules Stewart explores the potential danger of
replaying Britain’s military catastrophes and
considers what can be learnt from the
experiences of these earlier wars.

The American bombing of terrorist bases in
Afghanistan under the protection of the
Islamic fundamentalist Taliban movement has
brought the Taliban into sharp focus as the
most radical and extreme Islamic movement
in the world today. Little is known about the
Taliban because of the deep secrecy that
surrounds their political movement, their
leaders and their aims. The geo-strategic
implications of the Taliban are already creating
severe instability in Russia, Iran and the five
Central Asian republics where the Taliban have
become a major player in the new Great
Game, as Western countries and companies
compete to build oil and gas pipelines from
Central Asia to Western and Asian markets.
The Taliban’s implementation of their extreme
interpretation of Islam poses new challenges
to the Muslim world and the West’s
understanding of radical Islam in the postCold War era.

AFGHANISTAN AND THE DEFENCE
OF EMPIRE NEW
At the height of the ‘Great Game’ in Central
Asia, in the run up to World War I and the
aftermath of the second Afghan War, the
region of Afghanistan became particularly
significant for both Great Britain and Russia.
Afghanistan and the Defence of Empire explores
the relationship between British and Afghan
rulers, during the crucial period of the reign
of Amir Habibullah Khan, as the British sought
to safeguard their Indian Empire from the
threat of Imperial Russia.With Russia’s defeat
at the hands of the Japanese in 1905 and the
rise of Germany as a superpower, the need to
end the rivalry took on the utmost
importance: efforts which culminated in the
singing of the Anglo-Russian Convention in
1907.

Azerbaijan’s Soviet and post-Soviet political
history has been tumultuous and varied,
particularly with regard to the struggle for
independence, democracy and sovereignty.
Suha Bolukbasi here illustrates how postStalin resilience, the tolerance shown toward
subtle nationalist expression, and Gorbachev’s
relaxation of central control from Moscow
were responsible for the initial emergence of
a more liberal atmosphere in Azerbaijan. As a
result, issues such as Moscow’s responsibility
for environmental degradation, the depletion
of Azerbaijan’s oil, and unfavourable terms of
trade all began to be freely discussed.
However, the Azerbaijan-Armenian dispute
over Karabagh has had a dramatic impact on
the political discourse. The dispute has
become not only an international conflict, but
one which involves the lives of more than one
million refugees.

Nazrin Mehdiyeva
This book provides the first comprehensive
study of Azerbaijan’s post-independence
foreign policy in relation to its much stronger
neighbours – Russia,Turkey and Iran – and the
role that the west brought to bear in helping
Azerbaijan to counterbalance the influence of
Russia. Complex and subtle diplomatic
negotiations enabled the exploitation of
Azerbaijan’s substantial oil and gas resources
and the implementation of transit projects
that Azerbaijan’s leadership considered
critical.

Orientalism, Race and the Idea of the

Somaya Sami Sabry
The public image of Arabs in America has
been radically affected by the ‘war on terror’.
But stereotypes of Arabs, manifested for
instance in Orientalist representations of
Sheherazade and the Arabian Nights in
Hollywood, have prevailed for much longer.
Here Somaya Sabry argues that the ArabAmerican experience has been powerfully
shaped by racial discourse and Orientalism,
and is further complicated today by hostility
towards Arabs in post-9/11 America. .

Abdelkader Cheref, University of Limerick
Ireland
Literary fiction has always provided an outlet
for social and political critique. In the writing
of key North African women authors, the
dissection of Maghrebi society is at the very
heart of the narratives. Here, Abdelkader
Cheref charts the rise of postcolonial
literature written by women from the
Maghreb, and provides the first comparative
analysis of three of the region’s most
prominent contemporary authors: Assia
Djeba (Algeria), Leila Abouzeid (Morocco)
and Souad Guellouz (Tunisia).

GENDER AND NATION BUILDING
IN THE MIDDLE EAST NEW
The Political Economy of Health from
Mandate Palestine to Refugee Camps
in Jordan
Elise G. Young, Westfield State College,
Massachusetts
From Mandate Palestine to refugee camps in
Jordan today, generations of Palestinians have
been affected by the reach of the state into
their everyday lives. Here Elise Young offers an
analysis of the politics of state building in the
Middle East, viewed through the lens of
health.Young argues that gendered, raced and
classed constructions of health, as evidenced
in malaria eradication campaigns and the
regularization of midwifery, are central to
such state building processes. She draws on
archival documents to uncover British
medical administration and American
involvement during the Mandate, and in-depth
oral histories of Palestinian women refugees
in Jordan.

Men in Middle Eastern societies are often
viewed by the popular Western media only in
the context of religious fundamentalism and
the subjugation of women. This new book
shifts the discourse on gender, usually focused
on women, to men in the Middle East, and to
young men in Iranian society in particular –
and in the process fills a crucial gap in our
understanding. It illustrates that, contrary to
common perceptions that Iranian men are
‘tough’, there is an acute desire among young
men for women’s approval and friendship, and
to be recognised as sensitive and
cosmopolitan.

This book introduces students to the
theoretical and philosophical foundations of
Islamic contractual law. Islamic law is applied
in differing degrees by many countries across
the world and especially in the Middle East.
Considering the strategic and financial
importance of these countries, taken as a
whole, it is surprising how little academic
writing exists in the west on either Islamic
law or Middle Eastern law. Recently there
have been signs of a burgeoning interest in
Middle Eastern law. However, traditional
Islamic law remains a neglected area of study.
Hussein Hassan makes a significant
contribution by presenting a detailed survey
(which utilises both contemporary and
classical sources) of a crucially important area
of Islamic law – contract law – and by
adopting an approach that gives priority to
theory and to a comparative analysis with
Anglo-American law theory.

MUSLIM MINORITIES AND

Authority, Communities and Islamic
Law
Sean Oliver-Dee, London School of Theology
The issues of citizenship, identity and
cohesion have rarely been as vital as they are
today. Since the events of 9/11 and
subsequent terrorist episodes in Bali, Madrid,
London and elsewhere, focus in this area has
centred primarily upon Muslim minority
communities living in the west. This book
examines the question of citizenship and
loyalty, drawing on the historical contexts of
Muslim minorities living under British and
French imperial rule in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries, and looks at how shari’a
functioned within the context of imperial civil
code.

Maha-Hanaan Balala, Oxford University
Many of the principles prevalent in modern
Islamic contract law and commercial practice
remain the same as those outlined by the
Quran and the Prophet Muhammad, and
expounded by scholars of jurisprudence as far
back as the 13th century, despite the
advancement in time and sophistication of
commercial interaction. Maha-Hanaan Balala
here provides an analysis of the fundamental
principles underlying Islamic law and
commerce in comparison with their common
law equivalents in the English-speaking world.
She seeks to draw parallels (and differences
where appropriate) to facilitate the growth
and development of Islamic commercial and
financial law worldwide.

Tim Lindsey (Ed.), University of Melbourne
A thorough and detailed survey of Islam and
the law in Indonesia today is long overdue.
This volume offers an expert and systematic
update of the interaction of Islam and
positive law (substantive regulations and
institutions) in contemporary Indonesia,
where Islamic law has developed within a
state-approved and secularising bureaucratic
structure that valorised local traditions over
the scriptures of Islam.The result is an
increasingly complex mixture of local
traditions and norms and state secularism,
with growing social and political pressure for
an orthodoxy modelled more closely on
Arab cultures.

Rich evidence has emerged that shows how
women kept alive traditional Shamanistic
Islamic religious culture, especially Sufism,
even during Soviet rule when all religion was
banned.Women played a vital part in keeping
the flame of Islam burning throughout the
region, and nowhere was their role more
important than in the Ferghana Valley in
Uzbekistan, the cradle of female Islamic
culture and centre for women’s poetry and
music. Sultanova shows how Islam, long
underground, flowered at independence in
1991, boosting national Uzbek identity and
nationalism – 500 new mosques were built –
only to return to persecution by a
repressive state, although the women’s role
remains crucial to the survival of traditional
Muslim culture.

Their once traditional societies now host

SHAMANISM AND ISLAM
NEW
Sufism, Healing Rituals and Spirits in
the Muslim World
Thierry Zarcone and Angela Hobart (Eds)
The figure of the Shaman has always been a
prominent motif within the Islamic world,
particularly in relation to the mystical domain
of Sufism. This new book explores the link
between Islam and shamanism in
contemporary Muslim culture, examining how
the old religion of shamanism was ‘sufised’ in
order to adapt to wider Islamic society. The
authors survey shamanic practices in the
Turko-Persian area, the Balkans and North
Africa, to show how the Muslim shaman, like
his Siberian counterpart, cultivates personal
relations with spirits to help individuals
through healing and divination. They explore
the complexities and variety of rituals,
involving music, dance and, in some regions,
epic and bardic poetry, which demonstrates
the close links between shamanism and
Islamic arts. This is the first in-depth
exploration of ‘Islamised shamanism’, and is a
valuable contribution to the field of Islamic
Studies, Religion, Anthropology, and the
culture of the Middle East more widely.

Many existing introductions to Islam focus
predominantly on the Middle East and on
historical background at the expense of
Islam as a lived faith. Assessing Islam as a
truly global phenomenon, Catharina
Raudvere engages thoroughly with history
(explaining the significance of the revelation
of the Prophet Muhammad and the origins
of the different Sunni and Shi’a groups within
Islam), while also giving full and
comprehensive coverage to Muslim ritual life
and Islamic ethics. She discusses moral
debates and modern lifestyle issues such as
halal consumption, interfaith dialogue and
controversy over the wearing of the veil.
Diaspora communities are considered with a
view to showing how norms and doctrines
are understood – and sometimes
contradicted – in social and ritual practice.

ISLAM’S QUANTUM QUESTION
Reconciling Muslim
Tradition and Modern
Science
Nidhal Guessoum,
Sharjah, United Arab
Emirates
NEW
In secular Europe the veracity of modern
science is almost always taken for granted.
Whether they think of the evolutionary
proofs of Darwin or of spectacular
investigation into the boundaries of physics
conducted by CERN’s Large Hadron Collider,
most people assume that scientific enquiry
goes to the heart of fundamental truths about
the universe. Yet elsewhere, science is under
siege. In the USA, Christian fundamentalists
contest whether evolution should be taught
in schools at all. And in Muslim countries like
Tunisia, Egypt, Pakistan and Malaysia, a mere
15% of those recently surveyed believed
Darwin’s theory to be ‘true’ or ‘probably
true’. This thoughtful and passionately argued
book contends absolutely to the contrary:
not only that evolutionary theory does not
contradict core Muslim beliefs, but that many
scholars, from Islam’s golden age to the
present, adopted a worldview that accepted
evolution as a given.

Theology and Sufism in Yemen
Muhammad Ali Aziz, Yale University
Scholar, mystic and visionary, Ibn ‘Alwân lived
through the transition from Ayyubid to
Rasulid rule in thirteenth-century Yemen. He
was well known in his time for his critique of
the ruling elites and their governance, and left
behind a substantial body of writings on
Islamic mysticism, theology, law and exegesis
of the Qur’an. Here Muhammad Aziz presents
a comprehensive portrait of Ibn ‘Alwân,
delineating the religious and political
background in Yemen, the development of Sufi
orders, the interplay between Sufi, Shi’i and
Sunni traditions, and the impact of Ibn ‘Alwân
on the history of Sufism and Islam.

Haleem, SOAS
NEW IN PAPERBACK
The tenets of Islam cannot be grasped
without a proper understanding of the
Qur’an. In this important new introduction,
Muhammad Haleem examines its recurrent
themes – life and eternity, marriage and
divorce, peace and war, water and
nourishment – and for the first time sets
these in the context of the Qur’an’s linguistic
style. Professor Haleem examines the
background to the development of the surahs
(chapters) and the ayahs (verses) and the
construction of the Qur’an itself. He shows
that popular conceptions of Islamic attitudes
to women, marriage and divorce, war and
society, differ radically from the true teachings
of the Qur’an.

(Eds)
NEW
The relationship between Islam and the west
has
frequently
been
subject
to
misunderstanding and mistrust and recent
events in the international arena have only
deepened this perceived divide, culturally and
politically. The west often views the Islamic
world – and the Islamic world the west –
through a prism of mutual suspicion. In such
conditions conspiracy theories can flourish
on both sides of the cultural fence, but these
highly complex and important global
phenomena have been the subject of
surprisingly little investigation. Orientalism and
Conspiracy explores fully for the first time the
relationship between the sometimes
controversial concept of Orientalism, as
developed by Edward Said, and contemporary
conspiracy theories, and includes Robert
Irwin’s fascinating survey of the role of secret
societies in orientalist mythology.The authors
offer a comprehensive and ground-breaking
study of the conspiracy theory and Islam.

Shi’i Islam
Pedram Khosronejad,
University of St Andrews
NEW
The spiritual writings of the great Persian
poet Rumi (1207–1273) are often
characterised as the supreme expression of
Sufism, the fascinating mystical strain that
runs through Islamic thought and culture.
This important volume brings together
international Rumi experts and scholars to
explore the ways in which the mysticism of
Sufism coloured and shaped Rumi’s
passionate poetic philosophy. Ranging from a
comprehensive investigation of the language
and spirituality of the Masnavi, Rumi’s
greatest literary work, to the intriguing
relationship between Rumi’s poetic vision
and Christians and Sufis, the volume as a
whole offers an indispensable companion to
the poetry of the man who, perhaps before
all others, can best lay claim to reveal the
rich complexity of Persia’s soul.

ORIENTALISM AND CONSPIRACY
NEW
Shi’i Islam has been the official religion of Iran
from the Safavids (1501-1732) to the present
day.The Shi’i world experience has provided a
rich artistic tradition, encompassing painting,
sculpture and the production of artefacts and
performance, which has helped to embed Shi’i
identity in Iran as part of its national
narrative. In what areas of material culture
has Iranian Shi’ism manifested itself through
objects or buildings that are unique within the
overall culture of Islam? To what extent is the
art and architecture of Iran from the Safavid
period onwards identifiably Shi’i? What does
this say about the relationship of nation, state
and faith in Iran? Here, leading experts trace
the material heritage of Iranian Shi’ism within
each of its political, religious and cultural
dimensions.

NEW DIRECTIONS IN ISLAMIC THOUGHT
NEW
Can Sudan, one of Africa’s most diverse
countries, function as an Islamic state?
Mahmud Muhammad Taha posed an original
answer to this question. Taha was the
charismatic leader of the ‘Republican
Brothers and Sisters’, a small group of
Sudanese nationalists who called for a
mystical, inclusive reinterpretation of Islam
that ended traditional legal discriminations
against women and non-Muslims. Taha’s
followers
pitched
his
sometimes
controversial mix of law and mysticism on
Sudanese street corners in the 1970s.
Sudanese Islamist politicians, who used a
more divisive interpretation of Islam, opposed
him vigorously. When they gained control of
the state in the chaotic 1980s, Taha was
executed. In Taha’s first biography, Thomas
explores the life and ideas of an important
Sudanese reformer who has become a
symbol for resistance and human rights.

One of the most prominent Muslim scholars
and scientists of the medieval era, the Persian
polymath Nasir al-Din Tusi (1201-1274)
joined the Shi‘a Nizari Ismaili community at a
young age, as the armies of Genghis Khan
poured across his homeland. In the course of
a long and eminent career, first under the
patronage of the Ismailis at the fortress of
Alamut, and later with the conquering
Mongols, he produced over 150 works on
diverse subjects from theology and
philosophy to mathematics and astronomy. In
this volume, he offers new critical editions
and translations of three shorter Ismaili
works by Tusi, namely Aghaz wa anjam (The
Beginning and the End), Tawalla wa tabarra
(Solidarity and Dissociation), and Matlub almu’minin (Desideratum of the Faithful).

One of the richest and most rewarding, yet at
the same time least familiar, traditions of
Muslim literature is that of the Shi‘i Imami
Ismailis. Although many great literary
treasures of the Islamic world are already
available in English translation, those of the
Ismailis are only slowly being made accessible
to scholars and readers at large. This
substantial Anthology makes a vital and
welcome contribution to that process of
wider dissemination. It brings together for the
first time extracts from a range of significant
Ismaili texts in both poetry and prose, here
translated into English by some of the
foremost scholars in the field. The texts
included belong to a long span of Ismaili
history, which extends from the Fatimid era
to the beginning of the twentieth century.The
translations in question have been rendered
from their originals in Arabic, Persian and the
different languages of Badakhshan and South
Asia.

Mohammed Ali Amir-Moezzi is one of the
most distinguished scholars of Shi‘i history
and theology currently at work, and in this
volume he offers a wide-ranging and detailed
survey of the core texts of Shi‘i Islam.
Examining in turn the origins and later
developments of Shi‘i spirituality, the author
reveals the profoundly esoteric nature of the
beliefs which accrued to the figures of the
early imams, and which became associated
with the latter’s interaction between
material and spiritual worlds.These beliefs
were often designated as ‘ghulat’, or
‘extreme’, by other Muslims, and as a result
of such criticisms from within the tradition
they have remained little known and
misunderstood. The author shows, by
contrast, how central and creative the very
nature of spirituality was to the development
of Shi‘i Islam, as well as to classical Islamic
civilisation as a whole.

Dedicated to the achievements of Farhad
Daftary, the foremost authority on Ismaili
Studies of our time, this volume gathers
together a number of studies on intellectual
and political history, particularly in the three
main areas where the significance of Daftary’s
scholarship has had the largest impact: Ismaili
studies as well as Persian studies and Shi‘i
studies in a wider context. It focuses, but not
exclusively, on the intellectual production of
the Ismailis and their role in history, with
discussions ranging from some of the earliest
Ismaili texts, to thinkers from the Fatimid and
the Alamut periods as well as relations of the
Fatimids with other dynasties. Containing
essays from some of the most respected
scholars in Ismaili, Shi‘i and Persian Studies
(including Patricia Crone, M A Amir-Moezzi, C
Edmund Bosworth and Robert Gleave), the
book makes a significant contribution to
wider scholarship in philosophical theology
and medieval Islam.

saw the eclipse of the school of Khorasan, and
the tenth/sixteenth century that coincided
with the rise of the Safavids.The main schools
dealt with in this volume are the Peripatetic
(mashsha’i) School, the School of Illumination
(ishraq) of Suhrawardi, and various forms of
philosophical Sufism, especially the school of
Ibn ‘Arabi, that had its origins in the works of
Ghazzali and ‘Ayn al-Qudat Hamadani. This
period was also notable for the philosopherscientists such as Nasir al-Din Tusi and Qutb

The Ismailis have enjoyed a long, eventful and
complex history dating back to the 8th
century AD and originating in the early Shi'i
tradition of Islam. During the medieval period,
Ismailis of different regions – especially in
Central Asia, South Asia, Iran and Syria –
developed and elaborated their own
distinctive literary and intellectual traditions,
which constitute an outstanding contribution
to the culture of Islam as a whole.At the same
time, the Ismailis in the Middle Ages split into
two main groups who followed different lines
of spiritual leaders. The bulk of the Ismailis
came to have a line of imams now represented
by the Aga Khans, while a smaller group
–known in South Asia as the Bohras –
developed their own type of leadership. This
collection is the first scholarly attempt to
survey the modern history of both Ismaili
communities since the middle of the 19th
century.
Socrates famously said that the unexamined
life is not worth living. In keeping with this
dictum, taking ethics seriously means engaging
with the real world where the human sense of
right and wrong is daily tested. At their best,
all faith traditions are challenged by such
testing; and if faith-inspired ethics are thought
to goven the whole of life, their guiding values
need constantly to be interpreted by the
believer to achieve a practical result. In the
Muslim tradition, this is what the Qur’an really
amounts to: a call to strive for belief with a
social conscience. For fourteen centuries
Muslim scholars have grappled with the
implications of that call in matters of law,
social practice and theology. A Companion to
Muslim Ethics explores Islam’s core
conception of the good, shared with other
great traditions.

Reza Shah-Kazemi, The

NEW
The Qur’an is the sacramental foundation of
prayer in Islam. Its inspirational power is
perpetually renewed through being recited
and meditated upon by Muslims on a daily
basis throughout their lives.This succinct and
readable study offers unique contemporary
insights into the spiritual, intellectual and
moral interplay set in motion by the short
Qur’anic chapters that are recited in their
prayers by Muslims of all traditions, but which
are particularly recommended within Shi‘i
Islam. Reza Shah-Kazemi engages closely and
creatively with the Qur’anic chapters, basing
his philosophical reflections on traditional
exegetical principles, and focusing in particular
on the relationship between the moral and
the mystical aspects of the texts.The result is
a stimulating meditation that probes the
depths of meaning contained within the
verses of a revelation by which the spiritual
life of Muslims has for many centuries been
nourished and fulfilled.

Discourses amongst
Muslims
Z. Hirji (Ed.), York
University,Toronto
NEW
For more than fourteen hundred years
Muslims have held multiple and diverging
views about their religious tradition. This
divergence encompasses such matters as
authority; ritual practice; political power; law
and governance; civic life; and the form and
content of individual and communal
expressions of their faith. Over the centuries
Muslims have regularly debated these issues
amongst themselves. However, despite the
remarkable diversity of the Islamic tradition,
and the plurality of understandings about
Islam, Muslims are regularly and erroneously
portrayed as internally homogeneous and
dogmatic. This important book challenges
such propositions by examining the ways in
which matters of common concern to
Muslims have been discussed by them and
examined. Offering contributions by worldclass scholars, Diversity and Pluralism in Islam
applies insights from a range of disciplines,
including anthropology, history, literature,
political theory, comparative literature and
Islamic studies.

The Muhammad Ali Hamdani Collection in
Library of the Institute of Ismaili Studies
represents a large segment of the manuscripts
in the library collected over seven
generations by an eminent family of scholars
from the Da'udi Bohra community in India
and the Yemen. The largest part of the
manuscripts are of Ismaili religious writings,
but there are also a good number of
interesting books of general Islamic, or indeed
secular content, and these give a rare insight
into the whole range of culture of a learned
family of Indian religious scholars. The
overwhelming majority of the books are in
Arabic, but there are also a small number in
Persian and in Bohra Gujarati (Gujarati in
Arabic script). The kernel of this collection is
formed by the manuscripts which 'Alib Sa'id
al-Ya'buri al-Hamdani (born ca. 1132/1718,
died 1212/1798) brought with him when he
emigrated from the Yemen to Gujarat around
the middle of the 18th century, and of those
that he himself copied, before or after his
arrival in India.

The story of Judaism is a story of paradox. It
is the story of how a small cluster of desert
tribes gave birth to a monotheistic doctrine
that profoundly shaped the history of human
civilization. It is the story of how a displaced
people, globally dispersed throughout other
nations for two and a half millennia, came to
forge a modern, secular Israeli state which
many Jews believe to have been granted an
explicitly divine mandate. Oliver Leaman
carefully and creatively explores the nature
of these apparent contradictions.

JEWISH PHILOSOPHY
Daniel Rynhold, Bernard
Revel Graduate School
of Jewish Studies,Yeshiva
University, New York
BESTSELLER
Human civilization will be forever indebted to
the great thinkers of Jewish philosophy’s
golden age. Moses Maimonedes, Levi
Gersonides, Judah Halevi, Saadia Gaon, Hasdai
Crescas and their like grappled with some of
the most challenging metaphysical issues that
there are, while the profundity of their
solutions continue to engage philosophers
today. Did God create the world? Can human
freedom be reconciled with divine
foreknowledge? What is the nature of the
good life? Focusing on the central
philosophical questions of the Middle Ages,
Daniel Rynhold offers a concise introduction
to fundamental topics such as God and
creation, human freewill, biblical prophecy, the
Commandments, the divine attributes and
immortality. The first dedicated textbook to
introduce the great richness and complexity
of medieval Jewish philosophy as a whole, this
lively and comprehensive survey is the ideal
introduction both for undergraduate students
of the subject and the interested general
reader.

SHI’I ISLAM IN IRANIAN CINEMA
Khatereh Sheibani, University of Guelph
In recent years there has been a remarkable
surge in Iranian films expressing contentious
issues which would otherwise be very difficult
to discuss publicly inside the Islamic Republic
of Iran – such as the role of clergy in Iranian
society. Nacim Pak-Shiraz here highlights how
many Iranian film directors concern
themselves with the content of the religious
and historical narratives of culture and
society, sparking debate about the medium’s
compatibility or incongruity with religion and
spirituality.
Aesthetics, Modernity and Film after
the Revolution
In the wake of the 1979 Iranian Revolution,
Iranian society and culture underwent
massive changes. Here, Khatereh Sheibani
argues that cinema evolved after the national
uprising in 1978/79, and ultimately replaced
poetry as the dominant form of cultural
expression. She presents a comparative
analysis of post-revolutionary Iranian cinema
as an offshoot of Iranian modernity, and
explains its connections with the themes
present in traditional Persian poetry and
conventional visual arts.

NEW IRANIAN CINEMA
NEW
While the cinema of post-revolutionary Iran
is internationally acknowledged, the world
outside Iran has been ignorant of the Iranian
war films that are the subject of this
pioneering book. A massive production of
over 50 Iranian feature films concentrating
primarily on fighting and military operations
have appeared since the 1980s with the
beginning of the war between Iran and Iraq.
This book presents a detailed exploration of
the Sacred Defence Cinema, established by
Seyed Morteza Avini, a cinema that directly
connects this specific war to the faith and
religious belief of volunteer guardians of the
revolution. The main objective of Sacred
Defence Cinema is martrydom. As the
distinguished film scholar Hamid Dabashi
writes in his Introduction to the book: ‘If
national cinemas are predicated on national
traumas, in the volume that Pedram
Khosronejad has put together we are at the
heart of the heart of Iranian cinema’.

NEW
The rise in popularity of the New Iranian
Cinema has been a fascinating success story
and critics have hailed Iranian films as
alternatives to the global influence of
mainstream Hollywood cinema. Drawing on
seminal ideas of ‘art cinema’, Christopher
Gow examines how the success of this
cinema and the films of Abbas Kiarostami, its
foremost proponent, can be accounted for by
the extent to which they fit into a preestablished notion of art cinema. Gow also
seeks to expand understanding of postrevolutionary Iranian cinema by examining
the links between the New Iranian Cinema
and émigré Iranian filmmaking from the
uncompromising German films of Sohrab
Saless, to Vadim Perlman’s exploration of the
Iranian experience of exile in the Oscarnominated House of Sand and Fog. He reveals
how this large and dispersed émigré Iranian
cinema challenges our understanding of New
Iranian Cinema itself and of national cinema in
general.

SACRED SCRIPT
Muhaqqaq in Islamic
Calligraphy
Nassar Mansour
NEW
Arabic calligraphy is at once an expression of
piety, aesthetic sensibility and artistic
discipline. Muhaqqaq was an early term which
captured care, clarity and meticulousness in
calligraphy. It was associated with the making
of manuscripts of the Qur’an - a sacred task
and one which helped to give the new Islamic
order both identity and coherence. Muhaqqaq
energed in the eleventh century as the name
for one of six classical scripts.This is the first
book devoted entirely to Muhaqqaq tradition.
Nassar Mansour, himself a highly respected
calligrapher, here traces the development of
Muhaqqaq. His book also presents examples
of his own work in Muhaqqaq whish
demonstrate the enduring value of this script
for today. This is an invaluable and beautifully
executed reference work on Islamic
calligraphy, which will attract art historians
and practitioners alike.

THE SAFAVID DYNASTIC SHRINE
ART AND ARCHITECTURE IN THE
ISLAMIC TRADITION NEW
Aesthetics, Politics and Desire in Early
Islam
What is ‘art’ in the sense of the Islamic
tradition? Mohammed Hamdouni Alami
argues that Islamic art has historically been
excluded from western notions of art; that
the
western
aesthetic
tradition’s
preoccupation with the human body has
meant that Islamic and western art are
perceived as inherently at odds. However, the
move away from this ‘anthropomorphic
aesthetic’ in western art movements, such as
modern abstract and constructivist painting,
have presented the opportunity for new ways
of viewing and evaluating Islamic art and
architecture.

There are over twenty million Muslims in
China today. From the mountainous borders
with Afghanistan to the tropical island of
Hainan, the ethnicities and cultures of China’s
Muslims are as diverse as China herself. They
come from at least ten different ethnic
groups, including the Persianate Tajiks in the
Pamir Mountains, Kirgiz eagle hunters in the
west, and the Chinese speaking Hui living in
Canton. In recent years the world’s
attention has been drawn to the clashes
between Muslim Uighurs and Han Chinese in
Xinjiang Province. But how does a Muslim
minority in the People’s Republic of China live
today? After decades of communist rule, and
now under the onslaught of commerce and
consumerism, what pressures do the different
communities and their heritages face? How
Man Wong, a renowned Chinese explorer and
Adel Dajani, with his Muslim background,
come together to explore the regions of the
Asian borderlands where the traditions of
Islam and China interact.

The Safavid period represents an immensely
rich chapter in the history of Iranian
architecture. In this discussion of Safavid
architecture in the context of its political,
social and religious milieu, Kishwar Rizvi gives
special consideration to the shrine of Shaykh
Safi, built in AD 1334, as an important
template for an emergent Safavid taste. Of
both regal and religious significance, the
shrine’s direct relationship to imperial power
is unique in Islamic architecture and provides
valuable information about the methods of
architectural benefaction prevalent in early
modern Iran.

ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE IN IRAN
Poststructural Theory and the

Mosques
NEW
Saeid Khaghani, University of Manchester
The architecture of the Islamic world is
predominantly considered in terms of a
division between ‘tradition’ and ‘modernity’ –
a division which, Saeid Khaghani here argues,
has shaped and limited the narrative applied
to this architecture. Khaghani introduces and
reconsiders the mosques of eighth- to
fifteenth-century Iran in terms of
poststructural theory and developments in
historiography in order to develop a brand
new dialectical framework. By presenting a
new way of thinking about and discussing
Islamic architecture, this will be valuable
reading for all interested in the study of the
art, architecture and material culture of the
Islamic world.

MAMLUK HISTORY THROUGH

Medieval Egypt and
Syria
Nasser Rabbat, MIT
NEW
The most enduring testament to the Mamluk
Sultanate is its architecture. Not only do
Mamluk buildings embody one of the most
outstanding medieval architectural traditions,
Mamluk architecture is actually a key to the
social history of the period. Analysing
Mamluk constructions as a form of
communication and documentation as well as
a cultural index, Mamluk History Through
Architecture shows how the buildings mirror
the complex – and historically unique –
military, political, social and financial
structures of Mamluk society. With this
original and authoritative study Nasser
Rabbat offers an innovative approach to the
history of the Mamluks – through readings of
the spectacular architecture of the period.

Between the fourteenth and eighteenth

networks. It ranged from Arabia and Iran to
East Asia and, increasingly, fell within the orbit
of European colonial expansion.This resulted
in an immensely rich visual culture in the
region, shaped further by the dynamic
encounters between the different versions of
Islam patronized by the ruling dynasties of the
period, and diverse local linguistic, religious
and artistic traditions.

THE MINARETS OF CAIRO
Islamic Architecture
from the Arab

Period
Doris Behrens-Abouseif,
SOAS with contributions
from Nicholas Warner
NEW
Minarets have defined Cairo’s skyline since its
early history: they are one of the most
characteristic features of Islamic architecture.
In Egypt, where civilisations have manifested
themselves through awe-inspiring structures
since antiquity, ‘a thousand minarets’ reveal
the impact of Islamic civilization and urban
aesthetics. The Minarets of Cairo offers an
accessible and vivid insight into the religious,
historical and architectural significance of the
minaret in Cairo from the Arab Conquest,
through the Abbasid, Fatimid, Mamluk and
Ottoman periods. Students and scholars will
welcome historian and art historian Doris
Behrens-Abouseif’s excellent new research
and analysis as well as over one hundred
illustrated entries for individual minarets,
brought to life by Nicholas Warner’s masterly
architectural drawings and reconstructions.
With nearly three hundred illustrations, this
beautiful book provides depth and colour,
displaying to full effect historic Cairo’s most
impressive monuments.

Edmund Bosworth (Trans. and Ed.),
University of Exeter.
Abu Sa‘id ‘Abd al-Hayy Gardizi was an author
and historian living in the mid-eleventh
century at the height of the Turkish Ghazvanid
dynasty. His only known work, The Ornament
of Histories ('Zayn al-akhbar'), is a hugely
ambitious history of the Eastern Islamic lands
AD 650-1041, spanning what is now Eastern
Iran, Afghanistan and parts of the Central
Asian
Republics
and
Indo-Pakistan
subcontinent. Gardizi's text is an extremely
rare source of primary information about the
rise of Islamic faith, culture and military
dominance in these regions, and represents a
significant contribution to our understanding
of the early Islamic world. This is the first
English translation of the original Persian text,
and is accompanied by an introduction and
commentary which details the historical,
geographical and cultural context.

Widely admired, translated and commented
upon, the works of Jalal al-Din Rumi remain
largely unexamined from a literary
perspective. Emphasis has been placed on him
as a spiritual master, and on his Masnavi
(Rumi’s great masterpiece, consisting of Sufi
teaching stories given profound mystical
interpretations). As a result, the poet has
often been concealed from view. Yet there is
much to be explored and discovered in the
poetic legacy of Rumi’s entire corpus: his
dynamic use of imagery; his mastery of lyrical
expression; his creative use of poetic devices;
the powerful rhetoric of his narrative
structures; and more.This substantial volume,
offering contributions from leading scholars
of Persian literature and culture, focuses on
the poetic art of Rumi and the various ways it
interacts with the literary tradition that came
before and after him.

Hafiz of Shiraz has long been celebrated by
many as the greatest Persian poet within the
annals of world literature. During the
fourteenth century he was master of the
Persian ‘ghazal’ – the pre-eminent genre of
love poetry in the Iranian world in its day and
which, in the hands of Hafiz, reached the
pinnacle of its development and refinement.
Dominic Brookshaw here 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, whose
‘ghazals’ have received insufficient scholarly
attention to date. Brookshaw presents her for
the first time many previously untranslated
‘ghazals’. This detailed comparison enables a
truer picture of the distinct and innovative
nature of Hafiz’s poetry to emerge.

PATRONAGE AND POETRY IN THE
ISLAMIC WORLD NEW
Social Mobility and Status in the
Medieval Middle East and Central Asia
Jocelyn Sharlet, University of California
Arabic and Persian panegyric poetry was one
of the most important genres of literature in
the medieval Middle East and Central Asia.
Jocelyn Sharlet argues that panegyric poetry
is important not only because it provides a
commentary on society and culture in the
medieval Middle East, but also because
panegyric writing was one of the key means
for individuals to gain social mobility and
standing
during this period. This is
particularly so within the context of
patronage, a central feature of social order
during these times. Sharlet places the
medieval Arabic and Persian panegyric firmly
within its cultural context, and identifies it as
a crucial way of gaining entry to and
movement within this patronage network.
This is an important contribution to the fields
of pre-modern Middle Eastern and Central
Asian literature and culture.

LEGENDS OF THE FIRE SPIRITS
Jinn and Genies from
Arabia to Zanzibar
Robert Lebling,
Foreword by Tahir Shah
NEW
In the magical tale of Aladdin in The Arabian
Nights, the genie that suddenly appears out
of the lamp is powerful, playful and utterly
mysterious. Supernatural, shape-shifting
figures have been given many names over the
ages – genie, demon, spirit, ghoul, shaitan and
jinn.Those who have seen them believe jinn
shadow us in our daily lives, causing endless
mischief, providing amazing services and
sometimes inducing sheer terror. Legends of
the Fire Spirits explores the enduring
phenomenon of the jinn. From North Africa
to Central Asia, from the Mediterranean to
sub-Saharan Africa and beyond, this riveting
book draws on long-forgotten ancient
testimonies, medieval histories, colonial
records, anthropologists’ reports and
travellers’ tales to explore the different
types of jinn, their behaviour, society, culture
and long history of contact with humankind.
In essence, Legends of the Fire Spirits is a
magnificent and indispensable portrayal of
the rich folklore of the Islamic world.

T.E. Lawrence,
introduction by Jeremy
Wilson
NEW
The Arab Revolt of 1916-1918, when the
disparate tribes of Arabia rose up as one
mighty force to defeat an empire, was one of
the most epic and pivotal periods in the
history of the Middle East and a central part of
the Middle Eastern theatre of the First World
War. It sounded the death knell for the
Ottoman Empire and paved the way for a new
colonial power in the region – the British. It
was T.E. Lawrence, a young army officer with a
brilliant military mind and unmatched
knowledge of the region and the Arab people,
who – alongside the charismatic Faisal I – led
the Revolt. These were epic events that
changed the shape of the Middle East and
affected Lawrence for the rest of his life. His
magnificent first-hand account of the period is
now a classic of twentieth century literature
and a remarkable testament to the
extraordinary character of this great British
hero. Revolt in the Desert, the abridged edition
of Seven Pillars of Wisdom, became an instant
bestseller when it was first published in 1927.

Travels in Morocco
Walter Harris
British Travellers in

NEW
NEW
Walter Harris and Morocco are inextricably
linked. At a time when the wild, lawless
interior of the country had hardly been
explored by any westerner, Harris would
dress as a local and venture into the badlands,
fearlessly encountering caids and saints,
brigands and warriors. In this classic work,
Harris gives an evocative account of his
journeys around Morocco from 1887-1889. In
Tangier he writes of the eccentrics, artists and
lost souls who lived there. He takes an
eventful ride through Wazzan – a place few
Europeans would ever dare to visit. In
Marrakech, he paints a riveting picture of the
decadence and darkness of the sultan’s court.
And, finally, he recounts the story of his nowcelebrated ride, in disguise, to Sheshouan –
the second of only three Christians ever to
enter the town. The Land of an African Sultan is

James Canton
The images of great sand seas, proud Bedouin
tribesmen and the call to prayer resounding
across the rooftops of exotic cities still linger
on in western perceptions of the East. Over
a century of travel literature from
missionaries, soldiers, poets and explorers has
shaped our vision of the Arab World, from the
bustle of Cairo to the marshes of Iraq and the
mountains of Yemen. James Canton in From
Cairo to Baghdad looks at travel writers from
T.E. Lawrence to William Dalrymple. Tracing
the history of individual efforts to travel
Arabia against the British imperial aims in the
region, this book makes explicit the intimate
relationship between travellers to Arabia and
the British Empire. Some travellers wrote as
soldiers, diplomats, spies or cartographers.
Others, like Harry St John Philby actively
rejected the British and allied with their Arab
hosts. The array of eccentric and fascinating
characters described here alongside their
writing gives us an unmatched insight into the
British experience of Arabia.
THE LAST STORYTELLERS
Tales from the Heart
of Morocco
Richard Hamilton
NEW
Marrakech is the heart and lifeblood of
Morocco’s ancient storytelling tradition. For
over a thousand years, storytellers have
gathered in Jemaa el Fna, the legendary square
of the city, to recount ancient folktales and
fables to rapt audiences. But this unique chain
of oral tradition that has passed seamlessly
from generation to generation is teetering on
the brink of extinction. The competing
distractions of television, movies and the
internet have drawn the crowds away from
the storytellers and few have the desire to
learn the stories and continue their legacy.
Richard Hamilton has witnessed at first hand
the death throes of this rich and captivating
tradition and, in the labyrinth of the
Marrakech medina, has tracked down the last
few remaining storytellers, recording stories
that are replete with the mysteries and
beauty of the Maghreb.

BAGHDAD SKETCHES
Journeys through Iraq
Freya Stark
Mahmud Baroud, University of Exeter
From the ancient Egyptian Tale of a
Shipwrecked Sailor through to Sinbad and
Robinson Crusoe, the stranded castaway
living and philosophising alone on a strange,
desert island is a theme which has captured
the imaginations of writers spanning cultures
and millennia. Most familiar to western
literary historians is Daniel Defoe’s Robinson
Crusoe; however, little attention has been
paid to some of its antecedents, such as the
remarkable Hayy Bin Yaqzan by twelfthcentury Arab physician and philosopher,
Muhammad Ibn Tufayl.
Contents:
Introduction; 1. Reception of Ibn Tufayl’s Hayy
Bin Yaqzan in eighteenth-century England; 2.
The Sources of Robinson Crusoe and and
Hayy Bin Yaqzan; 3. Desert Islands and their
Purpose; 4.The Heroes’ Spiritual Journeys and
Evolution; 5.The Heroes’ Encounter with the
Other; Conclusion.

During her many years in Iraq, Freya Stark
was witness to the rise and fall of the British
involvement in the country as well as the
early years of independence. Typically – and
controversially – she chose to live outside the
close-knit western expatriate scene and
immersed herself in the way of life of ordinary
Iraqis – living in the ‘native’ quarter of the city
and spending time with its tribal sheikhs and
leaders. Venturing out of Baghdad, she
travelled to Mosul, Nineveh, Tikrit and Najaf,
where she perceptively describes the
centuries-old tensions between Sunni and
Shi’a, time not having dissipated their hatred.
In the 1940s she returned again, this time
travelling south, to the Marsh Arabs, whose
way of life has now all but disappeared; north
into Kurdistan and later, Kuwait, in the days
before the oil boom. Painting a portrait of
both the political and social preoccupations of
the day as exquisitely as she does the people
and landscapes of Iraq, Baghdad Sketches is a
remarkable portrait of the country as it once
was.

‘There are not so many places left where
magic reigns without interruption and of all
those I know, the coast of Lycia was the most
magical.’ Lycia, on the southwestern coast of
Turkey, is an ancient land steeped in mystery,
myth and legend. Home to the fiery chimera,
heartland of worship for the goddess Leto,
old ally of Troy, lure to conquering Cyrus and
Alexander and to centuries of travellers,
artists and writers - Lycia, part of the
‘Turquoise Coast’ now attracts more tourists
to her glimmering shores than any other part
of Turkey. In the early 1950s, following the trail
of the ancient Persian and Greek traders,
Freya Stark set out by boat to explore the
Lycian coast. South from Smyrna, she was
guided by the traces of Lycia’s rich history and
cultural heritage. For all those who now
follow in her wake, there can be no better,
more evocative or knowledgeable guide to
this,Turkey’s most enchanting coast.

THE MINARET OF DJAM
An Excursion in
Afghanistan
Freya Stark
NEW
Tracing the ancient incense route, Stark set
out to be the first westerner to discover the
fabled lost city of Shabwa, which had
captivated explorers and travellers for
centuries. Though she journeyed through the
canyons and mountains of the Hadhramaut
extensively and by any means possible, Stark’s
goal was never reached, but the ending to her
story was nevertheless – and in characteristic
fashion – dramatic. Having caught measles
whilst staying in a sultan’s harem and with the
region overrun by warring religious factions
and bandits, she had to be evacuated by the
Royal Air Force. Though Shabwa remained
elusive, Freya Stark’s remarkable journey
ensured that her name would forever be
associated with Arabia and her travels hailed
as intrepid and adventurous as any
undertaken by other great explorers of
Arabia such as T.E. Lawrence, Richard Burton
and Charles Doughty.

A WINTER IN ARABIA
The 12th century minaret of Djam is one of
Afghanistan’s most celebrated treasures, a
magnificent symbol of the powerful Ghorid
Empire that once stretched from Iran to India.
The second tallest brick minaret in the world,
Djam lies in the heart of central Afghanistan’s
wild Ghor Province. Surrounded by 2,000
metre-high mountains and by the remains of
what many believe to have been the lost city
of Turquoise Mountain – one of the greatest
cities of the Middle Ages – Djam is, even
today, one of the most inaccessible and
remote places in Afghanistan. When Freya
Stark travelled there, few people in the world
had ever laid eyes on it or managed to reach
the desolate valley in which it lies. Her
journey from Kabul to Kandahar and Herat
was difficult and often dangerous but her
account shines with humour and is adorned
with beautiful descriptions of the land she
journeyed through and the people she
encountered.
