Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This 1989 second volume of Professor Williams' translation of al-Tabar¿'s account of the early 'Abb¿s¿ empire focuses on the reigns of the son - al-Mahd¿ - and grandsons - al-Hadi and H¿r¿n al-Rash¿d - of Caliph al-Mans¿r, the subject of the first volume. This was the 'Golden Prime' of the empire, before the civil war between the sons of al-Rash¿d and the movement of the capital away from Baghdad. Also considered is the story of the Persian aristocratic family, the Barmakis, who became the real rulers under the indolent al-Rash¿d, until he destroyed them in a rage which astonished his contemporaries. The events are narrated through the reminiscences of eyewitnesses, woven together by the great historiographer al-Tabar¿ (d. 923). The translator of the volume is an Islamicist who has lived many years in the Arab world and has a rare knowledge of its culture and literature.

The most important work, and the only one printed, by 'Abd al-Latîf (1162-1231) considered one of the most enlightened men of his age. Born in Baghdad, he was given a prominent post in the great mosque of Damascus by Salah ud-Din (1187), from where he went to Egypt to teach at the Azhar.
