Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. x, 255 pages ; 24 cm. Summary:A collection of eight essays. Pp. 189-206, "Hating the Jew as an Arab" (not published previously), examines the popular negative image of the Jew and the Arab native in the eyes of the Pied Noirs (French settlers) in colonial Algeria. Discusses five stereotypic images - barbaric, impoverished, filthy, dishonest, and lecherous - expressed in popular literature, jokes, songs, and satiric feuilletons. The change in the Jews' civil and social status following the Crémieux Decree (1870) was highly resented. The settlers - including Spanish, Italian, and Maltese immigrants - were united in their hatred of Jews and Muslims, and in their belief in French cultural superiority.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 8 vo. xviii, 872 pp., hard back binding, small cut at edge of title page repaired with tape, otherwise copy in mint condition, biblio., index, The Darwin Press, Princeton, 1997. Note: This book offers a new approach to the vexing question of how to write the early history of Islam. The first part discusses the nature of the Muslim and non-Muslim source material for the seventh- and eighth-century Middle East and argues that by lessening the divide between these two traditions, which has largely been erected by modern scholarship, we can come to a better appreciation of this crucial period. The second part gives a detailed survey of sources and an analysis of some 120 non-Muslim texts, all of which provide information about the first century and a half of Islam (roughly A.D. 620-780). The third part furnishes examples, according to the approach suggested in the first part and with the material presented in the second part, how one might write the history of this time. The fourth part takes the form of excurses on various topics, such as the process of Islamization, the phenomenon of conversion to Islam, the development of techniques for determining the direction of prayer, and the conquest of Egypt.…
