Paperback. Condition: New. This book reconstructs the role of midwives in medieval to early modern Islamic history through a careful reading of a wide range of classical and medieval Arabic sources. The author casts the midwife's social status in premodern Islam as a privileged position from which she could mediate between male authority in patriarchal society and female reproductive power within the family. This study also takes a broader historical view of midwifery in the Middle East by examining the tensions between learned medicine (male) and popular, medico-religious practices (female) from early Islam into the Ottoman period and addressing the confrontation between traditional midwifery and Western obstetrics in the first half of the nineteenth century.…

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris , 2013. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché collé . Format 24 x 16 cm ( 900 gr )------ 553 pages + 18 planches photos & illustrations couleurs en cahier central. ************************ "" Si un modèle islamique de la famille s'est progressivement mis en place grâce aux formulations des juristes (IXe-Xe siècles), ses interprétations, applications et manifestations historiques sont extrêmement diverses. Ce modèle, exposé surtout dans la littérature de type normatif, a donné lieu à quantité de variantes : il ne s'est jamais réalisé à l'état pur dans l'histoire des sociétés musulmanes. Ce livre veut démentir des clichés trop répandus : soit la vision, née à l'époque coloniale, d'un patriarcat étouffant ; soit celle, développée par l'apologétique islamique contemporaine, d'un modèle immuable défini par la loi islamique. La Famille en islam recourt à des sources arabes de type varié (sources religieuses, traités juridiques, biographies, hagiographies, discours éthique et prescriptions éducatives) pour retracer modèles et discours à l'époque médiévale, tout en les confrontant à l'état de la recherche. Le vocabulaire arabe de la parenté dans les sources anciennes permet d'historiciser des notions complexes. L'usage des noms dans la famille suggère la richesse des relations familiales. Les rapports entre famille, parenté et droit sont un pan considérable du sujet dont un aspect particulier (l'histoire des doctrines juridiques autour de la parenté de lait) montre à quel point l'histoire du droit musulman nourrit celle de la famille. L'islam médiéval connaissait la notion d'enfance et les sentiments parentaux s'expriment, de façon touchante, à travers de nombreuses source d'époque mamelouke. L'étude des familles de saints, à commencer par celle du Prophète, enrichit notre connaissance des familles en Islam, modèles et réalités. L'essor récent des travaux sur l'histoire de la famille à l'époque ottomane et contemporaine permet enfin de proposer une synthèse historique sur les familles au Moyen-Orient du XVIIe siècle à aujourd'hui.
