Bernard Lewis 每 Islam and the West Oxford University Press ISBN: 1994-10-27 File type: PDF 240 pages 11.80 mb In this collection of essays, Lewis (Professor Emeritus of Near East Studies, Princeton) is concerned with relations between the Islamic and European civilizations. Lewis, well known for his myriad works on the Middle East (most recently, Race and Slavery in the Middle East, Oxford, 1990), focuses on perceptions and reactions to intercultural contact and the problems that preclude understanding. In 11 essays, he explores questions of patriotism, economics, and linguistics.
In part, this collection is a skillful rebuttal to the attack by Edward Said ( Orientalism, LJ 11/1/78) and others against Western scholarship, motives, and interpretations of the Middle East, which challenged savants such as Lewis himself. A work of sound scholarship; highly recommended. Nielson, Loyola Marymount Univ.
