New Blessed Are the Organized Grassroots Democracy in America Jeffrey Stout

“This engaging book makes a significant contribution to the ongoing discussion of the character and future of American democracy. It introduces readers to a long-standing and effective community organizing movement, and offers a hopeful but realistic assessment of what could happen if this model were implemented more widely and consistently. Stout offers a brilliant explanation of the political choices that now lie before us as a nation and as an emerging global society.” —Robin W. Lovin, Southern Methodist University

In an America where the rich and fortunate have free rein to do as they please, can the ideal of liberty and justice for all be anything but an empty slogan? Many Americans are doubtful, and have withdrawn into apathy and cynicism. But thousands of others are not ready to give up on democracy just yet. Working outside the notice of the national media, ordinary citizens across the nation are meeting in living rooms, church basements, synagogues, and schools to identify shared concerns, select and cultivate leaders, and take action. Their goal is to hold big government and big business accountable. In this important new book, Jeffrey Stout bears witness to the successes and failures of progressive grassroots organizing, and the daunting forces now arrayed against it.

Jeffrey Stout is professor of religion at Princeton University. His books include Ethics After Babel and Democracy and Tradition (both Princeton). He is past president of the American Academy of Religion and is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. 2010. 368 pages. 3 maps. Cl: 978-0-691-13586-1 $29.95 | £20.95

A Very Brief History of Eternity Carlos Eire

“As learned as it is lively, Carlos Eire’s A Very Brief History of Eternity traces the elusive history of a very big idea. Eire teaches us to understand our ways of thinking about the future—as well as the present and our past—with new clarity and insight.” —Anthony Grafton, Princeton University

In A Very Brief History of Eternity, Carlos Eire has written a brilliant short history of eternity in Western culture. Tracing the idea from ancient times to the present, Eire examines the rise and fall of five different conceptions of eternity, exploring how they developed and how they have helped shape individual and collective self-understanding. 2009. 286 pages. 16 halftones. 2 line illus. 2 tables.

Written for general readers by leading authors and experts, these books examine the historical origins of texts from the great religious traditions, and trace how their reception, interpretation, and influence have changed—often radically—over time. As these stories of translation, adaptation, appropriation, and inspiration dramatically remind us, all great religious books are living things whose careers in the world can take the most unexpected turns.

Lives of the Great Religious Books • 5 New The Ancient Near East An Anthology of Texts and Pictures Edited by James B. Pritchard Foreword by Daniel E. Fleming

“There is no other anthology on the ancient Near East with this breadth of geographi- cal and linguistic coverage, or with this variety of genres, from the literary and histori- cal to the legal, epistolary, and religious.” —Francesca Rochberg, University of California, Berkeley

James Pritchard’s classic anthologies of the ancient Near East have introduced generations of readers to texts essential for understanding the peoples and cultures of this important region. Now these two enduring works have been combined and integrated into one convenient and richly illustrated volume, with a new foreword that puts the translations in context.

With more than 130 reading selections and 300 photographs of ancient art, architec- ture, and artifacts, this volume provides a stimulating introduction to some of the most significant and widely studied texts of the ancient Near East, including the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Creation Epic (Enuma elish), the Code of Hammurabi, and the Baal Cycle. For students of history, religion, the Bible, archaeology, and anthropol- ogy, this anthology provides a wealth of material for understanding the ancient Near East.

Princeton Studies in Muslim Politics • 11 Forthcoming The Princeton Encyclopedia of Islamic Political Thought Edited by Gerhard Heinrich Böwering Patricia Crone, Wadad Kadi, Devin J. Stewart, Muhammad Qasim Zaman, associate editors Mahan Mirza, assistant editor

The first encyclopedia of Islamic political thought from the birth of Islam to today, this comprehensive, authoritative, and accessible reference provides the context needed for understanding contemporary politics in the Islamic world and beyond.

Winner of the 2005 Victoria Schuck Award, American Political Science Association Honorable Mention, 2005 Albert Hourani Book Award, Middle East Studies Association Politics of Piety The Islamic Revival and the Feminist Subject Saba Mahmood

“This very timely book opens doors into spaces of Islamic piety that shatter the stereotypes which dominate thinking in the West. Mahmood carefully unpacks the distortions that common modes of liberalism and feminism impose on the Muslim world. She combines richness of description with theoretical sophistication to provide insight into the struggle of some Muslim women to live their faith, often in the face of not only Western liberal influences but also Arab nationalism and political Islamism. The reader is forced to face dilemmas that cannot be easily resolved. This is social science at its most illuminating.” —Charles Taylor, Board of Trustees Professor of Law and Philosophy, Northwestern University 2004. 264 pages.
