Their religiosity, however, remained fundamental to their world view. In this book, Anna M. Speicher explores the dimentions of this evolving faith, which was critical in shaping their decisions...

Beyond the Exotic: Women's Histories in Islamic Societies
ISBN: 9780815630555 / Angielski / Miękka / 560 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Exoticizing (orientalizing) Muslim women--"or Islamic society in general--"has meant that "they" are dealt with outside of general women's history and thus have little to contribute to the writing of world history or to the life of their sisters...
