内容説明

The Islamic world in its year 132 (570 AD) was ruled by a new revolutionary regime. The dynasty that it brought to power was revered as the Imams of the Sunni Muslims for the next 767 years. In good part, this stability and longevity were founded by the remarkable grandfather of Harun al-Rashid, Abu Ja'far al-Mansur, who came to power in 754 AD and died in 775. Al-Mansur destroyed every threat to his own supremacy, leaving an opulent autocracy to his son. Here are the reminiscences of those who witnessed these years, woven by the great historiographer al-Tabari (d. 923) into a vivid account, translated for the first time into a western language from its source, hitherto available to a few specialists. This deft translation gives access to the world of eighth-century Baghdad, but also transcends that time in an account of permanent significance.

内容説明

This 1989 second volume of Professor Williams' translation of al-Tabari's account of the early 'Abbasi empire focuses on the reigns of the son - al-Mahdi - and grandsons - al-Hadi and Harun al-Rashid - of Caliph al-Mansur, the subject of the first volume. This was the 'Golden Prime' of the empire, before the civil war between the sons of al-Rashid and the movement of the capital away from Baghdad. Also considered is the story of the Persian aristocratic family, the Barmakis, who became the real rulers under the indolent al-Rashid, until he destroyed them in a rage which astonished his contemporaries. The events are narrated through the reminiscences of eyewitnesses, woven together by the great historiographer al-Tabari (d. 923). The translator of the volume is an Islamicist who has lived many years in the Arab world and has a rare knowledge of its culture and literature.
