Book Islamisation et arabisation de l Occident musulman m  di  val  VIIe XIIe si  cle

Download or read book Islamisation et arabisation de l Occident musulman m di val VIIe XIIe si cle written by Cyrille Aillet and published by Éditions de la Sorbonne. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dès le viie siècle, les premières expéditions musulmanes touchent l'Afrique du Nord encore partiellement dominée par Byzance. Elles atteignent le Maghreb extrême à l'aube du viiie siècle et s'étendent ensuite au-delà du détroit de Gibraltar. De l'actuelle Tunisie partent les contingents musulmans qui mettent le pied en Sicile au ixe siècle, plaçant l'île sous domination islamique pendant deux siècles. L'islamisation, entendue comme la construction en ces territoires d'institutions et de sociétés islamiques, ne fut ni immédiate, ni homogène. Les variations locales du rythme et de la géographie de l'islamisation donnent à réfléchir sur les étapes et les modalités de ce long processus : conversions, socialisation des convertis, action « par le haut » des autorités politiques et religieuses, acculturation des populations... En effet, lors des premiers siècles suivant la conquête, ce ne fut pas une norme unifiée de l'Islam qui s'imposa mais plusieurs interprétations héritées des conflits dogmatiques éclos en Orient, diffusées dans l'Occident musulman puis infléchies par le contexte local, humain, social et culturel. L'arabisation, c'est-à-dire la diffusion écrite et orale de la langue arabe, constitue l'un des vecteurs de diffusion de l'Islam, mais non le seul, comme le prouve, entre autres, la permanence de la culture berbère jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Les treize contributions réunies dans ce volume, résultat d'un séminaire organisé en 2006-2007, réunissent historiens des textes et de la culture matérielle. Prenant en considération la diversité de cet Islam médiéval, elles permettent d'offrir une nouvelle approche de l'histoire des premiers siècles de l'Occident islamique.

Book Europe and the Islamic World

Download or read book Europe and the Islamic World written by John Tolan and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping history of Islam and the West from the seventh century to today Europe and the Islamic World sheds much-needed light on the shared roots of Islamic and Western cultures and on the richness of their inextricably intertwined histories, refuting once and for all the misguided notion of a "clash of civilizations" between the Muslim world and Europe. In this landmark book, three eminent historians bring to life the complex and tumultuous relations between Genoans and Tunisians, Alexandrians and the people of Constantinople, Catalans and Maghrebis—the myriad groups and individuals whose stories reflect the common cultural, intellectual, and religious heritage of Europe and Islam. Since the seventh century, when the armies of Constantinople and Medina fought for control of Syria and Palestine, there has been ongoing contact between the Muslim world and the West. This sweeping history vividly recounts the wars and the crusades, the alliances and diplomacy, commerce and the slave trade, technology transfers, and the intellectual and artistic exchanges. Here readers are given an unparalleled introduction to key periods and events, including the Muslim conquests, the collapse of the Byzantine Empire, the commercial revolution of the medieval Mediterranean, the intellectual and cultural achievements of Muslim Spain, the crusades and Spanish reconquest, the rise of the Ottomans and their conquest of a third of Europe, European colonization and decolonization, and the challenges and promise of this entwined legacy today. As provocative as it is groundbreaking, this book describes this shared history in all its richness and diversity, revealing how ongoing encounters between Europe and Islam have profoundly shaped both.

Book The Aghlabids and their Neighbors

Download or read book The Aghlabids and their Neighbors written by Glaire D. Anderson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first dynasty to mint gold dinars outside of the Abbasid heartlands, the Aghlabid (r. 800-909) reign in North Africa has largely been neglected in the scholarship of recent decades, despite the canonical status of its monuments and artworks in early Islamic art history. The Aghlabids and their Neighbors focuses new attention on this key dynasty. The essays in this volume, produced by an international group of specialists in history, art and architectural history, archaeology, and numismatics, illuminate the Aghlabid dynasty’s interactions with neighbors in the western Mediterranean and its rivals and allies elsewhere, providing a state of the question on early medieval North Africa and revealing the centrality of the dynasty and the region to global economic and political networks.

Book A Plural Peninsula  Studies in Honour of Professor Simon Barton

Download or read book A Plural Peninsula Studies in Honour of Professor Simon Barton written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Plural Peninsula embodies and upholds Professor Simon Barton’s influential scholarly legacy, eschewing rigid disciplinary boundaries. Focusing on textual, archaeological, visual and material culture, the sixteen studies in this volume offer new and important insights into the historical, socio-political and cultural dynamics characterising different, yet interconnected areas within Iberia and the Mediterranean. The structural themes of this volume --the creation and manipulation of historical, historiographical and emotional narratives; changes and continuity in patterns of exchange, cross-fertilisation and the recovery of tradition; and the management of conflict, crisis, power and authority-- are also particularly relevant for the postmedieval period, within and beyond Iberia. Contributors are Janna Bianchini, Jerrilynn D. Dodds, Simon R. Doubleday, Ana Echevarría Arsuaga, Maribel Fierro, Antonella Liuzzo Scorpo, Fernando Luis Corral, Therese Martin, Iñaki Martín Viso, Amy G.

Book The Victors and the Vanquished

Download or read book The Victors and the Vanquished written by Brian A. Catlos and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-08-05 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a revisionary study of Muslims living under Christian rule during the Spanish 'reconquest'. It looks beyond the obvious religious distinctions and delves into the subtleties of identity in the thirteenth-century Crown of Aragon, uncovering a social dynamic in which sectarian differences comprise only one of the many factors in the causal complex of political, economic and cultural reactions. Beginning with the final stage of independent Muslim rule in the Ebro valley region, the book traces the transformation of Islamic society into mudéjar society under Christian domination. This was a case of social evolution in which Muslims, far from being passive victims of foreign colonisation, took an active part in shaping their institutions and experiences as subjects of the Infidel. Using a diverse range of methodological approaches, this book challenges widely held assumptions concerning Christian-Muslim relations in the Middle Ages, and minority-majority relations in general.

This book was released on 1995-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 962 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aujourd’hui, le monde de l’Islam est aussi éloigné dans le temps, de l’époque classique du Prophète et des califes, que l’Occident l’est de Charlemagne. Au XIe siècle seulement, apparaissent certains traits qui marquent encore les pays musulmans. Pour l’Occident, le XIe siècle est l’époque des Croisades. Dans le monde musulman, des peuples nouveaux s’imposent aux États. La fin de ce que nous appelons le Moyen Âge verra l’expansion de l’Islam dans le monde.

Book Globalism in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Age

Download or read book Globalism in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Age written by Albrecht Classen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it is fashionable among modernists to claim that globalism emerged only since ca. 1800, the opposite can well be documented through careful comparative and transdisciplinary studies, as this volume demonstrates, offering a wide range of innovative perspectives on often neglected literary, philosophical, historical, or medical documents. Texts, images, ideas, knowledge, and objects migrated throughout the world already in the pre-modern world, even if the quantitative level compared to the modern world might have been different. In fact, by means of translations and trade, for instance, global connections were established and maintained over the centuries. Archetypal motifs developed in many literatures indicate how much pre-modern people actually shared. But we also discover hard-core facts of global economic exchange, import of exotic medicine, and, on another level, intensive intellectual debates on religious issues. Literary evidence serves best to expose the extent to which contacts with people in foreign countries were imaginable, often desirable, and at times feared, of course. The pre-modern world was much more on the move and reached out to distant lands out of curiosity, economic interests, and political and military concerns. Diplomats crisscrossed the continents, and artists, poets, and craftsmen traveled widely. We can identify, for instance, both the Vikings and the Arabs as global players long before the rise of modern globalism, so this volume promises to rewrite many of our traditional notions about pre-modern worldviews, economic conditions, and the literary sharing on a global level, as perhaps best expressed by the genre of the fable.
