Middle East in Modern World History, The Plus MySearchLab with eText -- Access Card Package

This book presents two extraordinary texts - The Shining of Swords by Al-Qarakhi and a new translation for a contemporary readership of Leo Tolstoy's Hadji Murat - illuminating the mountain war between the Muslim peoples of the Caucasus and the imperial Russian army from 1830 to 1859. The authors offer a complete commentary on the various intellectual and religious contexts that shaped the two texts and explain the historical significance of the Russian-Muslim confrontation. It is shown that the mountain war was a clash of two cultures, two religious outlooks and two different worlds. The book provides an important background for the ongoing contest between Russia and indigenous people for control of the Caucasus.

This volume brings together twenty-five articles in honor of John E. Woods, representing his research and teaching especially on the later middle and early modern periods of Islamic history. The history of the later middle period (1250-1500) in particular is still one of the least developed areas within Islamic studies. This volume reflects Woods' special interest in this time, and attempts to shed much needed light on several aspects of the Mongol, Timurid, Safavid, Mamluk, and early Ottoman periods, including the internal political and cultural dynamics of the late medieval Islamic societies of the Nile-to-Oxus region, the interactions of the Turco-Mongol nomadic dynasties with their sedentary neighbors and subjects, the complex relationship between historiography, politics and political thought during these periods, and the transition from medieval to early modern societies in the Islamic world. The volume also includes an introduction on the life and work of John E. Woods and an extensive topical index.
