Indonesian Islam in a New Era

How Women Negotiate Their Muslim Identities

Indonesian Islam in a new era examines the religious practices and identities of Indonesian Muslim women in the post-Suharto era. After 1998 Indonesian Islam changed socially and nationally as society underwent sweeping alterations. Based on new empirical research by sociologists, political scientists, and anthropologists from Indonesia and Australia, the book underscores the negotiations Muslim women have made in arenas such as schools, organisations, popular culture and village life. Whereas theology has until recently dominated studies of women and Islam in Indonesia, this book breaks new ground by examining from social science perspectives how Indonesian women negotiate their Muslim identities.

The Concept of Woman

The Early Humanist Reformation, 1250-1500, Part 1

This seminal work is the second volume of a widely praised study of the concept of woman in the history of Western philosophy. Sister Prudence Allen explores claims about sex and gender identity in the works of over fifty philosophers (both men and women) in the late medieval and early Renaissance periods. Touching on the thought of every philosopher who considered sex or gender identity between A.D. 1250 and 1500, The Concept of Woman provides the analytical categories necessary for situating contemporary discussion of women in relation to men. Adding to the accessibility of this fine discussion are informative illustrations, helpful summary charts, and extracts of original source material (some not previously available in English). Encyclopedic in coverage yet clearly organized and well written, The Concept of Woman will be an invaluable resource for readers interested in a wide range of disciplines.

Very soon they were joined by many newly founded mendicant religious
communities, such as the Franciscans, Dominicans, and Augustinians who,
unlike the secular clergy who remained primarily in one location, formed
networks of houses of study throughout Europe in a move to evangelize and fight
different forms of heresy, apostasy, or the advance of other religions such as
Islam. The mendicant friars formed an elite group of men who studied at

The Alchemy of Happiness

Abu Hamid Muhammad al-Ghazzali (1058-1111) is one of the most important religious figures in Islamic history. He is particularly noted for his brilliant synthesis of mysticism and traditional Sunni Islam. Ghazzali's "The Alchemy of Happiness", written toward the end of his life, provides a succinct introduction to both the theory and practice of Sufism (Islamic mysticism). It thus offers many insights into traditional Muslim society. This translation is fully annotated for readers unfamiliar with Ghazzali and includes an introduction to his life and historical milieu.

The Working Man's Reward

Chicago's Early Suburbs and the Roots of American Sprawl

Between the 1860s and 1920s, Chicago's working-class immigrants designed the American dream of home-ownership. They imagined homes as small businesses, homes that were simultaneously a consumer-oriented respite from work and a productive space that workers hoped to control. Leapfrogging out of town along with Chicago's assembly-line factories, Chicago's early suburbs were remarkably diverse. These suburbs were marketed with the elusive promise that homeownership might offer some bulwark against the vicissitudes of industrial capitalism, that homes might be "better than a bank for a poor man," in the words of one evocative advertisement, and "the working man's reward." This promise evolved into what Lewinnek terms "the mortgages of whiteness:" the hope that property values might increase if that property could be kept white. Suburbs also developed through nineteenth-century notions of the gendered respectability of domesticity, early ideas about city planning and land economics, as well as an evolving twentieth-century discourse about the racial attributes of property values. Because Chicago presented itself as a paradigmatic American city and because numerous Chicago-based experts eventually instituted national real-estate programs, Chicago's early growth affected the growth of twentieth-century America. Framed by two working-class riots against suburbanization in 1872 and 1919, spurred from both above and below, this work shows how Chicagoans helped form America's urban sprawl and examines the roots of America's suburbanization, synthesizing the new suburban history into the diversity of America's suburbs.

Orientalisme savant, orientalisme littéraire

Sept essais sur leur connexion

Ce livre propose plusieurs analyses approfondies sur la notion d'orientalisme, dont les prémices en Europe remontent au Moyen-Âge. Terme auquel, dès le départ, on attribue deux significations : l’une que l’on peut qualifier de savante, fondée sur un apprentissage plus ou moins rigoureux, mais toujours laborieux des langues de l’Orient musulman, l’arabe d’abord, le turc et le persan ensuite ; l’autre que l’on peut qualifier de littéraire, et, plus largement, artistique, mettant ce même Orient, tantôt réel, tantôt rêvé, au centre de l’œuvre.
