Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. For decades now, the Middle East has been torn by violent conflicts of the most savage kind. There have been five Arab-Israeli wars; wars between other states; numerous civil wars, small and large; struggles by women, students, workers, peasants; religious and class battles. Innumerable books on these subjects have been published; however, "Forbidden Agendas: Intolerance and Defiance in the Middle East, a collection of seventeen articles from the journal Khamsin, stands alone. The contributors - who hail from Israel, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Iran - tackle themes proscribed in much of the region, such as Oriental Jews and Palestinian workers in Israel; women in Israel and the Arab countries; the politics of religion and religious revivalism in the Arab world, Iran, and Israel; the civil war in Lebanon and so on. Moreover, these themes are treated in unorthodox ways: few of these articles are likely to please committed partisans of any of the contending political forces. Readers of this anthology will find iconoclastic analysis of some of the issues underlying the many conflicts of the region, in the place of the usual repetitions of commonplace claims and the banal jargon of Middle Eastern politics, whether left or right.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Im Herzen des Alten Reiches, als die Pyramiden noch unbekannt waren und Ägypten nach einer neuen Form der Ewigkeit suchte, beginnt eines der kühnsten Bauvorhaben der Menschheitsgeschichte: die Stufenpyramide von Sakkara. Khamsin el-Wardi lässt uns durch die Augen des Imhotep - Wesir, Architekt, Arzt und engster Vertrauter des Pharao Djoser - an diesem monumentalen Unterfangen teilhaben.In wöchentlichen Berichten an seinen König dokumentiert Imhotep nicht nur den Fortschritt des Bauwerks, sondern offenbart die Seele eines Genies, das Unmögliches wagt. Mit der Rohrfeder in der Hand kämpft er nicht nur gegen Wind, Sand und die Widerstände des Steins, sondern auch gegen die eigenen Zweifel, gegen die Last der Verantwortung und gegen die Erkenntnis, dass er dabei ist, etwas zu erschaffen, das ihn selbst überdauern wird.Der Roman vereint historische Authentizität mit literarischer Meisterschaft. Die Atmosphäre des Alten Ägyptens wird greifbar: die kühle Morgenluft der Hochebene von Sakkara, der Geruch von Stein und Staub, die hierarchischen Strukturen einer Gesellschaft im Wandel. Gleichzeitig begegnen wir einem Imhotep von überraschender Modernität - ein Mensch, der schreibt, um zu verstehen, der zweifelt, während er erschafft, der die Größe seines Auftrags ebenso spürt wie seine eigene Zerbrechlichkeit.Besonders faszinierend ist die Beziehung zwischen Imhotep und Djoser, die sich durch die Berichte hindurch entfaltet: eine Freundschaft zwischen König und Diener, die die starren Grenzen ihrer Rollen transzendiert. Nebhepet, der junge Schreiber an Imhoteps Seite, verleiht der Erzählung zusätzliche Tiefe und eine berührende menschliche Note.Für alle, die sich für das Alte Ägypten, für die Entstehung monumentaler Bauwerke oder für die Psychologie des Schaffensprozesses interessieren, bietet dieses Buch eine einzigartige Perspektive auf einen der faszinierendsten Momente der Menschheitsgeschichte.…
