  • On Writing the History of Southern Mesopotamia* by Eva Von
    On Writing the History of Southern Mesopotamia* by Eva von Dassow — Colorado State University In his book Babylonia 689-627 B.C., G. Frame provides a maximally detailed his- tory of a specific region during a closely delimited time period, based on all available sources produced during that period or bearing on it. This review article critiques the methods used to derive the history from the sources and the conceptual framework used to apprehend the subject of the history. Babylonia 689-627 B. C , the revised version of Grant Frame's doc- toral dissertation, covers one of the most turbulent and exciting periods of Babylonian history, a time during which Babylon succes- sively experienced destruction and revival at Assyria's hands, then suf- fered rebellion and siege, and lastly awaited the opportunity to over- throw Assyria and inherit most of Assyria's empire. Although, as usual, the preserved textual sources cover these years unevenly, and often are insufficiently varied in type and origin (e.g., royal or non- royal, Babylonian or Assyrian), the years from Sennacherib's destruc- tion of Babylon in 689 to the eve of Nabopolassar's accession in 626 are also a richly documented period. Frame's work is an attempt to digest all of the available sources, including archaeological evidence as well as texts, in order to produce a maximally detailed history. Sur- rounding the book's core, chapters 5-9, which proceed reign by reign through this history, are chapters focussing on the sources (ch. 2), chronology (ch. 3), the composition of Babylonia's population (ch.

ULRICHSEN EDITORS MbZ and the Future Leadership of the United Arab Emirates IN PRACTICE, Sheikh Muhammad bin Zayed al-Nahyan, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, is already the political leader of the United Arab Emirates, even though the federation’s president, and Abu Dhabi’s leader, is his elder half-brother Sheikh Khalifa.

  • Representing Regions Sheikha Hoor Al- Qasimi in Conversation with Stephanie Bailey
    Platform 005 Interview Representing Regions Sheikha Hoor Al- Qasimi in conversation with Stephanie Bailey Sheikha Hoor Al-Qasimi grew up with the Sharjah Biennial. She was thirteen when it was conceived (in 1993) and remembers the first editions being held in the Expo Centre. When she graduated from the Slade School of Art in 2002, she travelled to Germany and chanced upon Okwui Enwezor’s 2002 Documenta 11. For her, it was a moment she realised what art could do, joining the Sharjah Biennial committee soon after. In 2003, Al-Qasimi co-curated Sharjah Biennial 6 alongside Peter Lewis – an event that saw the biennial move into its current location, the arts and heritage areas. Then, in Sara Ramo, The Garden From Free Zone, 2013, site- specific, installation, varied objects found inside the building and basement of the Culture Department located in the Free Zone of Sharjah, 333 m2.

This interview explores the issues surrounding the Sharjah Biennial, one of the region’s oldest and most progressive biennials. Stephanie Bailey: The cultural events produced by the Sharjah Art Foundation – namely, the Sharjah Biennial and annual March Meetings – have been embedded in the issues of developing and supporting contemporary art from in and around the Gulf and Arab regions and beyond.

Conceptualizing this feature as “heterodoxy,” earlier Turkish scholarship sought the roots of Alevi religiosity in Turkish traditions which traced back to Central Asia, on the one hand, and in medieval Anatolian Sufi orders such as the Yasawi, Bektashi, Qalandari, and Wafaʾi, on the other. A new line of scholarship has critiqued the earlier conceptualization of Alevis as “heterodox” as well as the assumption of Central Asian connections.

  • Mesopotamian Directory
    MESOPOTAMIAN DIRECTORY 2011 FOURTEENTH EDITION ORIENTAL INSTITUTE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO FEBRUARY 2011 This directory lists names and addresses of persons domiciled in North America who are engaged in research on the pre-Islamic archeology, history, and languages of greater Mesopotamia (including Syria east of the Upper Euphrates, the Elamite plains, and regions using a standard cuneiform script). It includes academics, museum personnel, library staff, and senior graduate students with a formally approved dissertation topic. A directory of this kind will inevitably have omissions. It has not always been possible to obtain timely information about possible entrants, and it has seemed advisable to drop outdated listings. Items enclosed in square brackets are based on the most recent data available (usually 2009 or later), but were not verified by the person listed. Phone numbers where messages can be left—other than the principal office or home number—are prefixed with an asterisk. This directory, now in its fourteenth edition, first appeared in February 1985 and has been published in hard copy every second February since then. The directory was first posted on the internet in February 2003. I wish to thank everyone who filled out and returned entry forms or responded to e-mail inquiries. A special debt is owed to Grant Frame, Ulla Kasten, and David Stronach for answering questions and verifying addresses. I am also grateful to Thomas Urban and John Sanders for their help in converting the directory for internet use. John A. Brinkman February 18, 2011 Mesopotamian Directory 2011 1 ABUSCH, Tzvi.

  • ARAB AWAKENING and ISLAMIC REVIVAL the Politics of Ideas in the Middle East
    ARAB AWAKENING AND ISLAMIC REVIVAL The Politics of Ideas in the Middle East Martin Kramer Transaction Publishers New Brunswick (U.S.A.) and London (U.K.) Text 1996 Syria’s Alawis and Shi‘ism 189 11 Syria’s Alawis and Shi‘ism In their mountainous corner of Syria, the Alawis claim to represent the furthest extension of Twelver Shi‘ism. The Alawis number perhaps a million persons—about 12 percent of Syria’s population—and are concentrated in the northwestern region around Latakia and Tartus. This religious minority has provided Syria’s rulers for nearly two decades. Syrian President Hafz al-Asad, in power since 1970, as well as Syria’s leading military and security chiefs, are of Alawi origin. Once poor peas- ants, they beat their ploughshares into swords, frst becoming military offcers, then using the instruments of war to seize the state. The role of Alawi communal solidarity has been diffcult to defne, and tribal afflia- tion, kinship, and ideology also explain the composition of Syria’s ruling elite. But when all is said and done, the fact remains that power in Syria is closely held by Alawis.1 This domination has bred deep resentment among many of Syria’s Sunni Muslims, who constitute 70 percent of the country’s population. For at the forefront of Syria’s modern struggle for independence were the Sunni Muslims who populated the cities of Syria’s heartland. They enjoyed a privileged standing under Sunni Ottoman rule; they, along with Syrian Christian intellectuals, developed the guiding principles of Arab nationalism; they resisted the French; and they stepped into positions of authority with the departure of the French.

Allah Ta’ala ne insaan ko 2 chizon se banaya hai, in mein se ek zaahir hai, dusri baatin. Zaahir nazar aane wali aur baatin chhupi hui chiz jo nazar nahin aati. In mein jo nazar aane wali chiz hai wo badan hai jisko angrezi mein body kehte hain, aur jo chiz chhupi hui hai nazar nahin aati usko rooh kehte hain. Jab nazar aanewali chiz badan se nazar na aane wali rooh connected hoti hai, ya’ni rooh ka tal’luq badan se ho jata hai to ye mitti se bana hua badan zinda ho jata hai, ab wo chalta-phirta, khata-peeta, hansta-bolta, sota-jaagta, likhta- padhta, ek samajhdaar sahib e sha’oor wajood ban jata hai.
