Roman, Provincial and Islamic Law: The Origins of the Islamic Patronate
ISBN: 9780521529495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the cultural origins of Islamic law. Some authorities stress the importance of the contribution of Roman law; others that of Arabian law. Most are agreed that Jewish law contributed, but not explained further. Dr Crone tests the Roman hypothesis with reference to one institution, the patronate, which does indeed appear to owe something to Roman law. He concludes that Roman law contributed only in so far as it was part and parcel of the rather different legal practice of the Near Eastern provinces, and that provincial law would repay further consideration by legal...

Slaves on Horses: The Evolution of the Islamic Polity
ISBN: 9780521529402 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Slave soldiers are a distinctively Muslim phenomenon. Though virtually unknown in the non-Muslim world, they have been a constant and pervasive feature of the Muslim Middle East from the ninth century AD into modern times. Why did Muslim rulers choose to place military and political power in the hands of imported slaves? It is this question which Dr Crone seeks to answer. Concentrating on the period from the rise of the Umayyads to the dissolution of the 'Abbasid empire (roughly AD 650 850), she documents the consequences of the fusion between religion and politics in Islam, which she sees as...

Pre-Industrial Societies
ISBN: 9780631156628 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. One would not normally expect students of biology to dissect frogs without prior knowledge of frog anatomy; yet students of history are regularly expected to analyse pre-modern institutions and events without any prior knowledge whatsoever of the general anatomy of pre-industrial societies. Gifted students will often acquire considerable knowledge of their particular areas - own individual frogs, so to speak - but the extent to which these conform to or depart from a common pattern remains unknown to them, a fact which seriously limits their capacity for interpretation.

God's Caliph: Religious Authority in the First Centuries of Islam
ISBN: 9780521541114 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This study examines how religious authority was distributed in early Islam. It argues the case that, as in Shi'ism, it was concentrated in the head of state, rather than dispersed among learned laymen as in Sunnism. Originally the caliph was both head of state and ultimate source of religious law; the Sunni pattern represents the outcome of a conflict between the caliph and early scholars who, as spokesmen of the community, assumed religious leadership for themselves. Many Islamicists have assumed the Shi'ite concept of the imamate to be a deviant development. In contrast, this book argues...

From Arabian Tribes to Islamic Empire: Army, State and Society in the Near East C.600-850
ISBN: 9780754659259 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This second collection of articles by Patricia Crone brings together studies on the development of early Muslim society, above all the army with which it was originally synonymous, from shortly after the Prophet's death until the mid-Abbasid period. The focus is on the changes that the Arab tribesmen underwent thanks to settlement outside Arabia, their strained relations with converts from the conquered population, and their gradual eclipse by them.
