The book deals with the history of North Africa in the Middle Ages.
It examines the formation of a society increasingly influenced by
Arabic, as well as Islamic, culture after the Arab conquests of the
7th and early 8th centuries which gradually brought the Roman
Christian civilisation of the region to an end. The subject and the
theme derive to a large extent from the work of Ibn Khaldun at the
end of the 14th century, whose indentification of the native
Berbers as a subject of historical enquiry defined the place, the
period, and the population to be studied. The collection is divided
into two halves, the first dealing with the formation of an Islamic
state system, the second with that of an Islamic society in which
Arabism played an increasing part. Both look forward to the
religious and political developments of the early modern period.
