 <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html><head> <meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta content="mshtml 6.00.6000.17104" name=generator></head> <body> A unique collection of studies, the present volume sheds new light on central themes of Ibn Taymiyya's (661/1263-728/1328) and Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya's (691/1292-751/1350) thought and the relevance of their ideas to diverse Muslim societies. Investigating their positions in Islamic theology, philosophy and law, the contributions discuss a wide range of subjects, e.g. law and order; the divine compulsion of human beings; the eternity of eschatological punishment; the treatment of Sufi terminology; and the proper Islamic attitude towards Christianity. Notably, a section of the book is dedicated to analyzing Ibn Taymiyya's struggle for and against reason as well as his image as a philosopher in contemporary Islamic thought. Several articles present the influential legacy of both thinkers in shaping an Islamic discourse facing the challenges of modernity. This volume will be especially useful for students and scholars of Islamic studies, philosophy, sociology, theology, and history of ideas.</body></html>

Charity And Giving In Monotheistic Religions

252,41€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <html> <head><meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head> <body> This book deals with various manifestations of charity or giving in the contexts of the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim societies in Late Antiquity and Early Middle Ages. Monotheistic charity and giving display many common features. These underlying similarities reflect a commonly shared view about God and his relations to mankind and what humans owe to God and expect from him. Nevertheless, the fact that the emphasis is placed on similarities does not mean that the uniqueness of the concepts of charity and giving in the three monotheistic religions is denied. The contributors of the book deal with such heterogeneous topics like the language of social justice in early Christian homilies as well as charity and pious endowments in medieval Syria, Egypt and al-Andalus during the 11th-15th centuries. This wide range of approaches distinguish the book from other works on charity and giving in monotheistic religions. </body> </html>

Charlemagne, Muhammad, And The Arab Roots Of Capitalism

de Gene William Heck

217,96€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <html> <head><meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head> <body> Presented in six principal analytic chapters with supporting appendices, this book explores the role of Islam in precipitating Europes twelfth century commercial renaissance. Employing the classic analytic techniques of economics, Gene Heck determines that medieval Europes feudal interregnum was largely caused by indigenous governmental business regulation and not by shifts in international trade patterns. He then proceeds by demonstrating how Islamic economic precepts provided the ideological rationales that empowered medieval Europe to escape its three-centuries-long experiment in Dark Age economics in the process, providing the West with its archetypic tools of capitalism. While treatises such as Maxime Rodinsons excellent book, Islam and Capitalism, document the capitalistic nature of the Islamic economic system, in applying modern economic method to medieval orientalist historiography, this work is unique in capturing both the evolution and the impact of the systems role in forging medieval history. </body> </html>

The Pseudo-Historical Image Of The Prophet Muhammad In Medieval Latin Literature: A Repertory

de Michelina Di Cesare

274,94€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html><head> <meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta content="mshtml 6.00.6000.17095" name=generator></head> <body> Exploring and understanding how medieval Christians perceived and constructed the figure of the Prophet Muhammad is of capital relevance in the complex history of Christian-Muslim relations. Medieval authors writing in Latin from the 8th to the 14th centuries elaborated three main images of the Prophet: the pseudo-historical, the legendary, and the eschatological one. This volume focuses on the first image and consists of texts that aim to reveal the (Christian) truth about Islam. They have been taken from critical editions, where available, otherwise they have been critically transcribed from manuscripts and early printed books. They are organized chronologically in 55 entries: each of them provides information on the author and the work, date and place of composition, an introduction to the passage(s) reported, and an updated bibliography listing editions, translations and studies. The volume is also supplied with an introductory essay and an index of notable terms.</body></html>

Honour Is In Contentment - Life Before Oil In Ras Al-Khaimah (Uae) And Some Neighbouring Regions

de Fidelity Lancaster e William Lancaster

284,21€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <html> <head><meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head> <body> Based on interviews and field research, the authors explore the sets of ideas Arab tribespeople from Ras Al-Khaimah had about tribe and community; social and economic networks, and jural contracts for livelihoods and profits; their uses of their environments; the moral relations of credit, debt and labour; ruling; economic and political transformations; and ideas of regional history where conflicts were regarded as disputes over sets of ideas, and informal accounts of tribal and local histories. Their lively descriptions and explanations of life before oil portrayed tribal societies whose relationships were moral rather than political and were between jurally equal persons. All lived from their own resources; 'wealth' was material self-sufficiency; 'riches' the richness of social relationships. Political arenas were decentralised and underpinned by common cultural and moral values. Published sources give a wider context to these ideas and events which show the great complexity and differing perspectives of 'life before oil' in the Gulf. </body> </html>

Islamic Imperial Law - Harun-Al-Rashid'S Codification Project

de Benjamin Jokisch

289,51€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <html> <head><meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head> <body> Despite the historical and contemporary significance of the Sharia, it has not yet been possible to solve the puzzle of its origins. Whereas previous research has postulated a greater or lesser degree of endogenous Islamic development, the present study reaches a different conclusion, namely that at the end of the 8th century Muslim state lawyers in Baghdad codified an Islamic Imperial Law, oriented strongly towards Roman-Byzantine law. It is part of an Islamic-Byzantine context, and can only be explained against this intercultural background. </body> </html>

After Hardship Cometh Ease - The Jews As Backdrop For Muslim Moderation

de Ze'Ev Maghen

164,30€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <html> <head><meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head> <body> Islam prides itself on being the religion of facility. Muslim sources are unanimous in assigning to Judaism the role of counterweight in this regard, pronouncing it a system of burdens and shackles by which the Jews oppressed their souls. This neat polarity both fueled, and was the product of, a fascinating reciprocal process: at the same time that shar'a was being created in the negative image of halakha, halakha was being retroactively re-imagined by Muslim jurists and exegetes as the antipode of shar'a . Although scholarly studies of the intertexture of Islam and Judaism abound, few have touched upon the Muslim traditions perception and utilization of Jewish law, and none has done so in depth. This book aims to fill that lacuna and further our understanding of the age-old embrace and grapple between the two faiths. </body> </html>
