"Intellectuals in the Modern Islamic "World reconsiders the
typology and history of intellectuals in the Arabic world from the
late 19th century to present day.
This volume distinguishes itself from other major studies on modern
thought in Islam by examining this topic beyond the context of the
Arabic world. The first section of this book concentrates on a
journal, al-Manar, published between 1898 and 1935, and read by a
wide range of audiences throughout the Islamic world, which
inspired the imagination and arguments of local intelligentsias in
the first half of the 20th Century. The second part concentrates on
the formation, transmission and transformation of learning and
authority, from the Middle East to Central and South Asia, through
the 20th century.
Providing a rich variety of case studies, by international authors
of the most varied disciplinary scope, Intellectuals in the Modern
Islamic World meets the highest academic requirements in a spirit
of comparative vision and openness to the dynamism of contemporary
societies of the Islamic world. This book is essential reading for
those with research interests in Islam and intellectual thought.""
