Book excerpt: Comprenez pourquoi le Moyen-Orient est si conflictuel. L'Empire ottoman était autrefois une force puissante. A son apogée en 1683, l'empire s'étend des portes de Vienne à l'actuelle Somalie au sud et à la Mésopotamie à l'est. S'étendant sur des États modernes comme l'Irak, l'Arabie saoudite, la Syrie et la Turquie, le siège du pouvoir de l'Empire ottoman était la capitale de Constantinople. Ce livre décrit la fin de l'Empire ottoman au début du XXe siècle. Nous examinerons également l'histoire d'une autre hégémonie impériale puissante, l'Empire britannique. Cette puissance coloniale, avec la France, a contribué à mettre fin à la domination ottomane. À travers un examen des décisions et du destin de ces deux superpuissances mondiales, vous apprendrez comment l'une des régions les plus politiquement instables du monde, le Moyen-Orient, est devenue le nid de frelons géopolitiques qu'elle est aujourd'hui.

Download or read book Syria and Lebanon Under the French Mandate written by Idir Ouahes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French rule over Syria and Lebanon was premised on a vision of a special French protectorate established through centuries of cultural activity: archaeological, educational and charitable. Initial French methods of organising and supervising cultural activity sought to embrace this vision and to implement it in the exploitation of antiquities, the management and promotion of cultural heritage, the organisation of education and the control of public opinion among the literate classes. However, an examination of the first five years of the League of Nations-assigned mandate, 1920-1925, reveals that French expectations of a protectorate were quickly dashed by widespread resistance to their cultural policies, not simply among Arabists but also among minority groups initially expected to be loyal to the French. The violence of imposing the mandate 'de facto', starting with a landing of French troops in the Lebanese and Syrian coast in 1919 - and followed by extension to the Syrian interior in 1920 - was met by consistent violent revolt. Examining the role of cultural institutions reveals less violent yet similarly consistent contestation of the French mandate. The political discourses emerging after World War I fostered expectations of European tutelages that prepared local peoples for autonomy and independence. Yet, even among the most Francophile of stakeholders, the unfolding of the first years of French rule brought forth entirely different events and methods. In this book, Idir Ouahes provides an in-depth analysis of the shifts in discourses, attitudes and activities unfolding in French and locally-organised institutions such as schools, museums and newspapers, revealing how local resistance put pressure on cultural activity in the early years of the French mandate.
Download or read book The Arabs and the Holocaust written by Gilbert Achcar and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2010-04-13 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented and judicious examination of what the Holocaust means—and doesn't mean—in the Arab world, one of the most explosive subjects of our time There is no more inflammatory topic than the Arabs and the Holocaust—the phrase alone can occasion outrage. The terrain is dense with ugly claims and counterclaims: one side is charged with Holocaust denial, the other with exploiting a tragedy while denying the tragedies of others. In this pathbreaking book, political scientist Gilbert Achcar explores these conflicting narratives and considers their role in today's Middle East dispute. He analyzes the various Arab responses to Nazism, from the earliest intimations of the genocide, through the creation of Israel and the destruction of Palestine and up to our own time, critically assessing the political and historical context for these responses. Finally, he challenges distortions of the historical record, while making no concessions to anti-Semitism or Holocaust denial. Valid criticism of the other, Achcar insists, must go hand in hand with criticism of oneself. Drawing on previously unseen sources in multiple languages, Achcar offers a unique mapping of the Arab world, in the process defusing an international propaganda war that has become a major stumbling block in the path of Arab-Western understanding.
Download or read book The Medieval Chronicle 16 written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alongside annals, chronicles were the main genre of historical writing in the Middle Ages. All chronicles raise such questions as by whom, for whom, or for what purpose they were written, how they reconstruct the past, or which literary influences are discernible in them. Their significance as sources for the study of history, literature, linguistics, and art is widely appreciated. The series The Medieval Chronicle, published in cooperation with the Medieval Chronicle Society (medievalchronicle.org), provides a representative survey of on-going research in the field of chronicle studies, illustrated by examples from a wide variety of countries, periods, and cultural backgrounds.

Download or read book Le monde turco iranien en question written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2008 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le monde turco-iranien, qui s'étend des Dardanelles à l'Indus et se prolonge jusqu'aux frontières occidentales de la Chine, est un vaste ensemble de l'aire musulmane, mais il demeure mal connu en Occident. Il regroupe aujourd'hui plus de 200 millions d'habitants, répartis dans une douzaine d'Etats. Monde ancien, fragmenté, hétérogène et contrasté tout en ayant de forts éléments d'unité, cette région est à la fois un centre de diffusion culturelle, et un lieu de passage, de contact, et d'échanges économiques depuis la plus haute Antiquité. Située au cœur de l'Eurasie, traversée par les routes les plus anciennes, son rayonnement culturel a souvent dépassé les frontières des pays qui la composent aujourd'hui. Confronté à la "modernité" depuis environ deux siècles, le monde turco-iranien a abordé cette nouvelle étape de son histoire en empruntant des voies différentes: certains pays se sont inspirés de l'exemple occidental, d'autres ont été marqués par la colonisation russe, l'expérience soviétique voir chinoise. Paradoxalement, alors qu'une partie des pays de la région ont effectué les expériences de laïcité les plus poussées (Turquie et républiques ex-soviétiques en particulier), d'autres ont exploré la voie de l'islam politique le plus radical (Iran et Afghanistan). Dans cette perspective, ces contrées ont été en quelque sorte le laboratoire du monde musulman dans son ensemble. Cet ouvrage est issu d'un colloque organisé en novembre 2005 à l'Institut universitaire d'études du développement (IUED) de Genève en l'honneur de Mohammad-Reza Djalili. Les articles rassemblés dans ce volume offrent une réflexion critique sur la pertinence heuristique du concept de "monde turco-iranien", sur ses confins et sur ses spécificités. Ils adoptent tour à tour une perspective historique, politologique et anthropologique et abordent des thématiques telles que l'évolution historique de ces régions, la formation des Etats, les tensions de sociétés en transition à l'heure de la globalisation et des replis identitaires.
Download or read book Fixers written by Zrinka Stahuljak and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2024-02-16 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this book, Zrinka Stahuljak issues a challenge to scholars working in medieval studies to account for the history of translation, and to experts in translation studies to read the work of medievalists. Focusing on the term "fixer," she unpacks modern uses of the words "interpreter" and "translator" and restores them to their premodern origins: as an active agent who performed a wide range of tasks, as insider informant, local guide, broker of knowledge, and transmitter of art. For Stahuljak, the fixer was a multifunctional intermediary, not a mere translator or interpreter (in the restricted modern sense), but an enabler, facilitator, and mediator, the engine driving the exchange of multiple linguistic, social, cultural, and topographic forms of knowledge. She proposes a paradigmatic shift for both medieval literary history and for the history of translation to confront and interrogate each other in their core disciplinary practices, which promote national, political, and colonial agendas masked as neutrality. Surveying a variety of texts from 1250 to 1500, including crusade treatises and travel writings, accounts of pilgrims and spies, chronicles and romances in both prose and verse, and traversing an impressive range of languages, including Latin, Middle French, German, Italian, and Spanish, Stahuljak asks both medievalists and translation studies scholars to reconsider their assumptions and methods as a way to reconstruct a premodern, precolonial, inclusive world literature"--
