Cultural Pearls from the East offers fascinating insights into
Muslim-Arab culture and the evolution of its intellectual nature
and literary texts from early Islam to modern times. The textual
analysis of largely unexplored literary works and chronicles that
epitomize this volume highlight the affinity between culture,
society, and politics, exploring these issues from both thematic
and comparative perspectives. Among the topics examined in depth:
Arabic poetry of warfare at the dawn of Islam; medieval poems about
venerated sites and saints; Ottoman and Egyptian chronicles
portraying the socioreligious landscapes of Egypt and the Fertile
Crescent under the Ottoman Empire and in the shadow of growing
European encroachment; and Arab-Jewish literature dealing with
suppression, exile, and identity. Contributors: Ghaleb Anabseh,
Albert Arazi, Meir M. Bar-Asher, Peter Chelkowski, Geula Elimelekh,
Sigal Goorj, Jane Hathaway, Meir Hatina, Yair Huri-Horesh, Amir
Lerner, Menachem Milson, Gabriel M. Rosenbaum, Joseph Sadan, Yona
