This book of essays explores the characteristic traits and diverse functions of holy men and the fashioning of saints out of a small minority of holy men and other individuals of high social status with more dubious spiritual credentials.

East Rome, Sasanian Persia and the End of Antiquity: Historiographical and Historical Studies
ISBN: 9780860789925 / Twarda / 2006 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The last, longest and most damaging of the wars fought between East Rome and Sasanian Persia (603a 628) brought the classical phase of west Eurasian history to a dramatic close. Despite its evident significance, not least as the distant setting for Muhammad's prophetic mission, this last great war of antiquity attracted comparatively little scholarly attention until the last decades of the twentieth century. James Howard-Johnston's contributions to the subject, most of which were published in out-of-the-way places (one, that on al-Tabari, is printed for the first time), are brought together...

Witnesses to a World Crisis: Historians and Histories of the Middle East in the Seventh Century
ISBN: 9780199208593 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. James Howard-Johnston provides a sweeping and highly readable account of probably the most dramatic single episode in world history - the emergence of a new religion (Islam), the destruction of two established great powers (Roman and Iranian), and the creation of a new world empire by the Arabs, all in the space of not much more than a generation (610-52 AD). Warfare looms large, especially where operations can be followed in some detail, as in Iraq 636-40, in Egypt 641-2 and in the long-drawn out battle for the Mediterranean (649-98). As the first history of the formative phase of Islam to...

Open Versus Closed: Personality, Identity, and the Politics of Redistribution

Debates over redistribution, social insurance, and market regulation are central to American politics. Why do some citizens prefer a large role for government in the economic life of the nation while others wish to limit its reach? In Open versus Closed, the authors argue that these preferences are not always what they seem. They show how deep-seated personality traits underpinning the culture wars over race, immigration, law and order, sexuality, gender roles, and religion shape how citizens think about economics, binding cultural and economic inclinations together in unexpected ways....
