Pasif devrim: Islami muhalefetin düzenle bütünlesmesi. [= Passive revolution: Absorbing the Islamic challenge to capitalism]. Translated by Ferit Burak Aydar.
New Turkish Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). Edition in Turkish. 286 p. Pasif devrim: Islami muhalefetin düzenle bütünlesmesi. [= Passive revolution: Absorbing the Islamic challenge to capitalism]. Translated by Ferit Burak Aydar. Third Edition. Over the last decade, pious Muslims all over the world have gone through contradictory transformations. Though public attention commonly rests on the turn toward violence, this book s stories of transformation to moderate Islam in a previously radical district in Istanbul exemplify another experience. In a shift away from distrust of the state to partial secularization, Islamists in Turkey transitioned through a process of absorption into existing power structures. With rich descriptions of life in the district of Sultanbeyli, this unique work investigates how religious activists organized, how authorities defeated them, and how the emergent pro-state Justice and Development Party incorporated them. As Tugal reveals, the absorption of a radical movement was not simply the foregone conclusion of an inevitable world-historical trend but an outcome of contingent struggles. With a closing comparative look at Egypt and Iran, the book situates the Turkish case in a broad historical context and discusses why Islamic politics have not been similarly integrated into secular capitalism elsewhere.

M. AMIN ABDULLAH.
The idea of universality of ethical norms in Ghazali & Kant.
Very Good English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English. [xvi], 296 p. The idea of universality of ethical norms in Ghazali & Kant. This book deals with the theory of ethics, as it is formulated by Ghazali and Immanuel Kant. Their theory of ethics is critically examined to delinate its similarities, differences and consequences. Kant's rational ethics, in essence, is only the consequence of having such an Analytical Method in the basic framework. The term 'rational' here is not intended at all to leave no room for religious ethics. It is rather intended to emphasize the active, dynamic and autonomous role of moral agents in attaining virtues. While Ghazali's mystical ethics is merely intended to save the individual in the hereafter based on the teaching of a particular religious teaching. He does not concern to build such a rigorous methodology in ethics which is applicaple to human beings in general. His concern is mainly to defend a particular religious ethics.

New Turkish Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Turkish. 460 p., ills. Byzantion'dan Constantinopolis'e Istanbul kusatmalari. Istanbul Research Institute presents a collection of papers in its new book. Although it does not discuss each siege that the city has encountered throughout its history of nearly two millennia, Byzantion'dan Constantinopolis'e Istanbul Kusatmalari presents a full view -panopticon- of the ones that sources bring to the forefront. It is a collection of works selected from current literature that takes into consideration the diversity of ancient sources, epigraphical documents, and numismatic finds which have gained more prominence in Ancient and Medieval studies. The book contains research essays written in Turkish and English which not only focus on the forces that have besieged Istanbul (ever since its foundation, the city has been sieged first by its closest neighbors, the Thracians, and later the Hellenes, the Macedonians, Hellenistic kingdoms, the Romans, the Avars, the Sassanids, the Arabs, the Bulgars, the Rus, the Crusaders, and the Ottomans), but also draw attention to political rivalries, sieges triggered by conflicts that resulted in civil wars, and the capital's defense elements.

Very Good French Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 14 cm). In French. 243, [1] p., 1 folded map. 4tth Enlarged Edition. Maghrebian Islam: Introduction to the general study of Islam. Bousquet was a 20th-century French jurist, economist and Islamologist. He was Professor of law at the Faculty of Law of the University of Algiers where he was a specialist in the sociology of North Africa (Berbers, Islam). He is also known for his translation work of the great Muslim authors, Al-Ghazali, a theologian who died in 1111 and Tunisian historian Ibn Khaldun, (1332-1406). He was known as a polyglot, spoke several European languages (Dutch, his second mother tongue, English, German, Italian, but also Spanish, Danish, Norwegian ...) and Eastern ones (Arab, Malay ...). After studying law, economics and political science in Paris, Bousquet was appointed in 1927 as a lecturer in economics at the Faculty of Law of Algiers. By this time, he learned Arabic and became interested in Islamic studies while preparing the agrégation in political economy which he passed in 1932. He became a professor and continued his academic career in Algiers for three decades, as an economist and scholar of Islam. The titles of his chair were successively Économie et sociologie nord-africaine (in 1947), to become Histoire comparée des coutumes de l'Islam et économie et sociologie algériennes one year later and finally Droit musulman et sociologie nord-africaine. After the independence of Algeria, Bousquet moved to Bordeaux to complete his academic career: he taught both Muslim sociology and the history of economic thought.

FARHAD MASSUMED, SIMON RETTIG.

New Turkish Paperback. 4to. (33 x 25 cm). Edition in Turkish. 382 p., color ills. Kur'an-i Kerim sanati. Türk ve Islâm Eserleri Müzesi hazineleri. 15 Ekim 2016 - 20 Subat 2017. [Exhibition catalogue]. With contributions by François Derroche, Edhem Eldem, Jane McAuliffe, Sana Mirza, Zeren Tanindi. In the early twentieth century, the Ottoman Empire was in political turmoil. Officials moved valuable artworks--including thousands of sumptuous Qur'an (Koran) manuscripts and loose pages dating from the 7th to 17th century--to Istanbul to ensure their safety. Penned by celebrated calligraphers and embellished by skilled illuminators and bookbinders, these manuscripts are now housed in the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts (Türk ve slam Eserleri Müzesi or TIEM) in Istanbul, established in 1914. This story unfolds in "The Art of the Qur'an: Treasures from the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts," the companion publication to the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery's groundbreaking exhibition, the first major presentation of Qur'ans in the United States. The book's authors describe the formation of this one-of-a-kind collection and the history of TIEM, whose centuries-old records on patrons, calligraphers, illuminators, and provenance allow us to create "biographies" detailing the production of the Qur'ans in the exhibition. Essays address the Qur'an as a written text--from content and organization to the elaborate calligraphy and illuminated designs that transformed the volumes into beautiful artworks. "The Art of the Qur'an "also includes in-depth descriptions of some seventy works from TIEM and the Smithsonian's Sackler and Freer Galleries. It features full-page, color images of the earliest known Qur'an folios and manuscripts from the Umayyad and Abbasid Near East (7th-10th century), Seljuk Iran and Anatolia (12th century), the Mongol Il-Khanid and Timurid empires and Mamluk Cairo (14th and 15th centuries), Safavid and Ottoman empires (16th and 17th centuries) as well as a number of mosque furnishings, such as Qur'an boxes and stands. Most of these works have rarely, if ever, been published.

New English Paperback. 4to. (33 x 25 cm). Edition in English. 382 p., color ills. The art of the Qur'an. Treasures from the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts. 15 October 2016 - 20 February 2017. [Exhibition catalogue]. With contributions by François Derroche, Edhem Eldem, Jane McAuliffe, Sana Mirza, Zeren Tanindi. In the early twentieth century, the Ottoman Empire was in political turmoil. Officials moved valuable artworks--including thousands of sumptuous Qur'an (Koran) manuscripts and loose pages dating from the 7th to 17th century--to Istanbul to ensure their safety. Penned by celebrated calligraphers and embellished by skilled illuminators and bookbinders, these manuscripts are now housed in the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts (Türk ve slam Eserleri Müzesi or TIEM) in Istanbul, established in 1914. This story unfolds in "The Art of the Qur'an: Treasures from the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts," the companion publication to the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery's groundbreaking exhibition, the first major presentation of Qur'ans in the United States. The book's authors describe the formation of this one-of-a-kind collection and the history of TIEM, whose centuries-old records on patrons, calligraphers, illuminators, and provenance allow us to create "biographies" detailing the production of the Qur'ans in the exhibition. Essays address the Qur'an as a written text--from content and organization to the elaborate calligraphy and illuminated designs that transformed the volumes into beautiful artworks. "The Art of the Qur'an "also includes in-depth descriptions of some seventy works from TIEM and the Smithsonian's Sackler and Freer Galleries. It features full-page, color images of the earliest known Qur'an folios and manuscripts from the Umayyad and Abbasid Near East (7th-10th century), Seljuk Iran and Anatolia (12th century), the Mongol Il-Khanid and Timurid empires and Mamluk Cairo (14th and 15th centuries), Safavid and Ottoman empires (16th and 17th centuries) as well as a number of mosque furnishings, such as Qur'an boxes and stands. Most of these works have rarely, if ever, been published.
