RothschildContributor: J. Rothschild (Translated by), Amin Maalouf (Edited by)Language: EnglishDescription: European and Arab versions of the Crusades have little in common. For Arabs, the twelfth and thirteenth centuries were years of strenuous efforts to repel a brutal and destructive invasion by barbarian hordes. In "The Crusades Through Arab Eyes", Amin Maalouf has sifted through the works of a score of contemporary Arab chroniclers of the Crusades, eyewitnesses and often participants in the events. He retells their stories in their own vivacious style, giving us a vivid portrait of a society rent by internal conflicts, and shaken by a traumatic encounter with an alien culture. He retraces two critical centuries of Middle Eastern history, and offers fascinating insights into some of the forces that shape Arab and Islamic consciousness today.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: Saqi EssentialsItem Length: 137mmTopic: HistoryItem Width: 31mmAuthor: Amin MaaloufRelease Year: 2006 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
