内容説明

For centuries the Islamic world has - by turns - been both reviled and admired in the West. Since the time of the Crusades, Europeans have viewed Muslim culture and religion through the unique distorting lens of Orientalism, colouring all aspects of their perception and generating a curious blend of fascination and distrust. Maxime Rodinson, the eminent French sociologist and scholar of Islam, presents his view of the Orientalist debate in this concise and balanced examination of the evolution of Europe's perception of Islam.

目次

  • Part 1 Western views of the Muslim world: the Middle Ages
  • toward a less polemical image
  • coexistence and reconciliation
  • from coexistence to objectivity
  • the birth of Orientalism
  • the enlightenment
  • the 19th century
  • challenges to Eurocentrism. Part 2 Toward a new approach to Arab and Islamic studies: traditional Orientalism in the past
  • the present crisis and current problems
  • the present state of the craft - the continuance of the past impetus
  • theologocentrism in scholarship
  • new fields and disciplines
  • regional influences in Islamic studies
  • the modalities of future progress
  • proposals for future study.

内容説明

For centuries the Islamic world has, by turns, been both reviled and admired in the West. Since the time of the Crusades, Europeans have viewed Muslim culture and religion through the unique distorting lens of Orientalism, colouring all aspects of their perception and generating a curious blend of fascination and distrust. Historian, sociologist and Middle East specialist Maxime Rodinson presents an account of this relationship, in a history that is balanced and concise yet insightful.
