  • The Berber Identity: a Double Helix of Islam and War by Alvin Okoreeh
    The Berber Identity: A Double Helix of Islam and War By Alvin Okoreeh Mezquita de Córdoba, Interior. Muslim Spain is characterized by a myriad of sophisticated and complex dynamics that invariably draw from a foundation rooted in an ethnically diverse populace made up of Arabs, Berbers, muwalladun, Mozarebs, Jews, and Christians. According to most scholars, the overriding theme for this period in the Iberian Peninsula is an unprecedented level of tolerance. The actual level of tolerance experienced by its inhabitants is debatable and relative to time, however, commensurate with the idea of tolerance is the premise that each of the aforementioned groups was able to leave a distinct mark on the era of Muslim dominance in Spain. The Arabs, with longstanding ties to supremacy in Damascus and Baghdad exercised authority as the conqueror and imbued al-Andalus with culture and learning until the fall of the caliphate in 1031. The Berbers were at times allies with the Arabs and Christians, were often enemies with everyone on the Iberian Peninsula, and in the times of the taifas, Almoravid and Almohad dynasties, were the rulers of al-Andalus. The muwalladun, subjugated by Arab perceptions of a dubious conversion to Islam, were mired in compulsory ineptitude under the pretense that their conversion to Islam would yield a more prosperous life. The Mozarebs and Jews, referred to as “people of the book,” experienced a wide spectrum of societal conditions ranging from prosperity to withering persecution. This paper will argue that the Berbers, by virtue of cultural assimilation and an identity forged by militant aggressiveness and religious zealotry, were the most influential ethno-religious group in Muslim Spain from the time of the initial Muslim conquest of Spain by Berber-led Umayyad forces to the last vestige of Muslim dominance in Spain during the time of the Almohads.

Toch zijn veel boeken die politiek als onderwerp hebben inderdaad saai om te lezen.

In his biographical work The Lives of the Caesars, the literary artist Gaius ​ ​ Suetonius Tranquillus (c. 69-122 CE) provides a concise, informative, and illustrative depiction of the reigns of these two emperors. Suetonius’ particular literary technique and style used in the narration for both Nero and Caligula contributes to an enduring legacy of madness and depravity that has been influential in our understanding of these two rulers well into the modern age.

  • Frits Bolkestein Is Een Leergierig Ventje Van Veertien Jaar En
    1 HET BEGIN: 1948-1963 rits Bolkestein is een leergierig ventje van veertien jaar en zit in de tweede klas van het prestigieuze Barlaeus Gymnasium Fin Amsterdam, Neelie Kroes speelt in Rotterdam op de kleu­ terschool, niet met poppen maar met houten vrachtautootjes, en ook Hans Wiegel vermaakt zich nog in de zandbak, terwijl Ed Nijpels nog geboren moet worden. Terwijl deze kinderen nog geen flauwe notie hebben van de roem die zij later in politiek en bestuur zullen vergaren, loopt de 21-jarige Schilleman Overwa­ ter het Amsterdamse Centraal Station uit. Het is zaterdag 24 ja­ nuari 1948. De snijdende en harde oostenwind maakt het met een paar graden boven nul onaangenaam koud. Gevoelstemperatuur min vijf, zouden we nu zeggen. De jongeman uit het Zuid-Hol- landse dorpje Strijen trekt zijn kraag hoog op, steekt zijn handen diep in zijn jaszakken en loopt naar de halte van lijn 1. De tram staat gelukkig al klaar en negen haltes verder stapt hij uit op het Leidseplein. Overwater heeft van tevoren goed geïnformeerd hoe hij bij Theater Bellevue moet komen; hij kent de hoofdstad niet. Het is gaan sneeuwen, grote, natte vlokken, en dat zal nog uren zo doorgaan. Gelukkig hoeft hij niet ver te lopen. Hij wandelt langs hotel-restaurant Americain, slaat rechts af de Leidselcade op en betreedt even later het zalencomplex waar ruim twaalf jaar eerder Max Euwe wereldkampioen schaken is geworden tegen de Rus Aljechin. 9 Een week daarvoor is O ver water voor het eerst van zijn leven in Amsterdam. Zijn Partij van de Vrijheid (PvdV) heeft er ver­ gaderd over samenwerking met het Comité-Oud.

  • The Rise of the Seljuqs and Their State in Central Asia
    Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 6(12): 410-417, 2012 ISSN 1991-8178 The Rise of the Seljuqs and their State in Central Asia Arshad Islam, Associate Professor Head, Department of History & Civilization International Islamic University Malaysia. Abstract: The Seljuqs, who arose in the 11thcentury CE in Central Asia, created one of the largest Muslim Empires in the Middle East, unifying the Muslim lands of the Abbasid east and giving a new impetus to the course of Muslim history. They were the most prominent Turkic Muslim dynasty prior to the Ottomans, with dominion throughout central Asia, Iran, Iraq, Kirman, Syria and Anatolia; it was the Seljuq threat to the Byzantine Empire that precipitated the Crusades. However, little is generally known of the origins and rise of the Suljuqs; this paper explores the course of the genesis of Seljuq power and authority. It traces the rise of the Seljuqs from a minor branch of a Turkic tribe through their incorporation into the fabric of the dwindling Samanid province, then the various manoeuvresand struggles that took place between them and rival Turkic peoples – the Ghaznavids and the Qarakhanids and the various wars for supremacy in Khurasan. It then charts the life and campaigns of Sultan Jalaluddin Malikshah, Sultan Rukn Al-Dunya Tughril Beg, relations with the Abbasid Caliphs (including marriage), the accession of Sultan Alp Arslan, campaigns against the Byzantnies, along with numerous intra-Seljuq wars of succession and rebellions, and the important role of the vizier Nizamul Mulk. Based mainly on Arabic, Persian, Urdu and English sources, the study focuses on the intellectual legacy of the Seljuqs, including their interest in the progress of science and philosophy.

  • Jaarboek 1979
    Links Klassiek Het eerste jaarboek voor het democratisch socialisme Onder redactie van Jan Bank, Martin Ros en Bart Tromp In dit voortaan elk najaar verschijnende Jaarboek voor het democratisch socialisme zal middels een waaier van artikelen van politiek-theoretische, sociaal-kritische en historische aard in hoofdzaak de aandacht gericht worden op verleden, heden en toekomst van het democratisch socialisme in Nederland en het buitenland. De drie redacteuren van het jaarboek, die zelf geregeld artikelen over of in verband met het socialisme publiceren, zijn van mening dat in de her­ nieuwde belangstelling voor de geschiedenis en hedendaagse stand van het socialisme in Nederland de brede hoofdstroom van het democratisch socialisme opvallend mager vertegen­ woordigd is. Het accent ligt bovendien in hoge mate op de historiografie en veel minder op de sociale en politieke theorie. Met het jaarboek hopen de redacteuren een bijdrage te kunnen leveren aan het overbruggen van voornoemde omissies, althans aan het tot stand brengen van enige aan­ zienlijke accentverschuivingen. Dit jaarboek is niet gebon­ den aan enige politieke partij in Nederland. In dit eerste jaarboek is het hoofd thema dat van de kritiek op de verzorgingsstaat, terwijl een profiel gewijd is aan Jacques de Kadt. In Het e e r s t e Jaarboek voor het demo­ cratisch socialisme komt verder onder meer aan de orde het onderwerp socialisme onder het communisme (zowel na 1917 in Rusland als na 1945 in Oost-Europa). Profielen van Frank van der Goes en J. G. Suurhoff completeren het geheel. Tot de medewerkers aan dit nummer behoren, behalve de redacteuren zelf, prof.

I would like to thank my other committee members, Professor Mark LeVine and Professor Emeritus James Given, for willing to sit on my committee and to read an entire dissertation focused on the history and literature of medieval Iran and Central Asia, even though their own interests and decades of academic research lay elsewhere.
