This is a chronological history of the Sufi tradition, divided in
to three sections, early, middle and modern periods. The book
comprises 35 independent chapters with easily identifiable themes
and/or geographical threads, all written by recognised experts in
the field. The volume outlines the origins and early developments
of Sufism by assessing the formative thinkers and practitioners and
investigating specific pietistic themes. The middle period contains
an examination of the emergence of the Sufi Orders and illustrates
the diversity of the tradition. This middle period also analyses
the fate of Sufism during the time of the Gunpowder Empires.
Finally, the end period includes representative surveys of Sufism
in several countries, both in the West and in traditional "Islamic"
regions. This comprehensive and up-to-date collection of studies
provides a guide to the Sufi tradition. The Handbook is a valuable
resource for students and researchers with an interest in religion,
Islamic Studies and Middle Eastern Studies.
