Zusammenfassung: | This kaleidoscopic book covers almost 3,000 years of Arab history and shines a light on the footloose Arab peoples and tribes who conquered lands and disseminated their language and culture over vast distances. Tracing this process to the origins of the Arabic language, rather than the advent of Islam, Tim Mackintosh-Smith begins his narrative more than a thousand years before Muhammad and focuses on how Arabic, both spoken and written, has functioned as a vital source of shared cultural identity over the millennia. Mackintosh-Smith reveals how linguistic developments-from pre-Islamic poetry to the growth of script, Muhammad's use of writing, and the later problems of printing Arabic-have helped and hindered the progress of Arab history, and investigates how, even in today's politically fractured post-Arab Spring environment, Arabic itself is still a source of unity and disunity. |

Tracing this process to the origins of the Arabic language, rather than the advent of Islam, Tim Mackintosh-Smith begins his narrative more than a thousand years before Muhammad and focuses on how Arabic, both spoken and written, has functioned as a vital source of shared cultural identity over the millennia. Mackintosh-Smith reveals how linguistic developments-from pre-Islamic poetry to the growth of script, Muhammad's use of writing, and the later problems of printing Arabic-have helped and hindered the progress of Arab history, and investigates how, even in today's politically fractured post-Arab Spring environment, Arabic itself is still a source of unity and disunity.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="g">Foreword.</subfield><subfield code="t">The wheel and the hourglass --</subfield><subfield code="g">Introduction.</subfield><subfield code="t">Gathering the word --</subfield><subfield code="t">Emergence: 900 BC-AD 600 --</subfield><subfield code="g">1.</subfield><subfield code="t">Voices from the wilderness: earliest Arabs --</subfield><subfield code="g">2.</subfield><subfield code="t">Peoples and tribes: Sabaeans, Nabataeans, and nomads --</subfield><subfield code="g">3.</subfield><subfield code="t">Scattered far and wide: the changing grammar of history --</subfield><subfield code="g">4.</subfield><subfield code="t">On the edge of greatness: the days of the Arabs --</subfield><subfield code="t">Revolution: 600-630 --</subfield><subfield code="g">5.</subfield><subfield code="t">Revelation, revolution: Muhammad and the Qur'an --</subfield><subfield code="g">6.</subfield><subfield code="t">God and Caesar: the state of Medina --</subfield><subfield code="t">Dominance: 630-900 --</subfield><subfield code="g">7.</subfield><subfield code="t">Crescaders: openings-up --</subfield><subfield code="g">8.</subfield><subfield code="t">The kingdom of Damascus: Umayyad rule --</subfield><subfield code="g">9.</subfield><subfield code="t">The empire of Baghdad: Abbasid sovereignty --</subfield><subfield code="t">Decline: 900-1350 --</subfield><subfield code="g">10.</subfield><subfield code="t">Counter-cultures, counter-caliphs: the empire breaks up --</subfield><subfield code="g">11.</subfield><subfield code="t">The genius in the bottle: the hordes close in --</subfield><subfield code="t">Eclipse: 1350-1800 --</subfield><subfield code="g">12.</subfield><subfield code="t">Masters of the monsoon: Arabs around the Indian Ocean --</subfield><subfield code="t">Re-emergence: 1800-Now --</subfield><subfield code="g">13.</subfield><subfield code="t">Identity rediscovered: awakenings --</subfield><subfield code="g">14.</subfield><subfield code="t">The age of hope: Nasserism, Ba'thism, liberation, oil --</subfield><subfield code="g">15.</subfield><subfield code="t">The age of disappointment: autocrats, Islamocrats, Anacharchs --</subfield><subfield code="g">Afterword.</subfield><subfield code="t">In the station of history.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Online resource;

New Haven ; London : Yale University Press, [2019] ©2019 1 online resource (xxxiv, 630 pages) : illustrations (some color), maps text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index. This kaleidoscopic book covers almost 3,000 years of Arab history and shines a light on the footloose Arab peoples and tribes who conquered lands and disseminated their language and culture over vast distances. Tracing this process to the origins of the Arabic language, rather than the advent of Islam, Tim Mackintosh-Smith begins his narrative more than a thousand years before Muhammad and focuses on how Arabic, both spoken and written, has functioned as a vital source of shared cultural identity over the millennia. Mackintosh-Smith reveals how linguistic developments-from pre-Islamic poetry to the growth of script, Muhammad's use of writing, and the later problems of printing Arabic-have helped and hindered the progress of Arab history, and investigates how, even in today's politically fractured post-Arab Spring environment, Arabic itself is still a source of unity and disunity.
