Synopsis
In Man versus Society in Medieval Islam , Franz Rosenthal (1914-2003) investigates the tensions and conflicts that existed between individuals and society as the focus of his study of Muslim social history. The book brings together works spanning fifty years: the monographs The Muslim Concept of Freedom , The Herb. Hashish versus Medieval Muslim Society (Brill, 1971), Gambling in Islam (Brill, 1975), and Sweeter than Hope. Complaint and Hope in Medieval Islam (Brill,1983), along with all the articles on unsanctioned practices, sexuality, and institutional learning. Reprinted here together for the first time, they constitute the most extensive collection of source material on all these themes from all genres of Arabic writing, judiciously translated and analyzed. No other study to date presents the panorama of medieval Muslim societies in their manifold aspects in as detailed, comprehensive, and illuminating a manner., Man versus Society in Medieval Islam brings together all the monographs and articles by Franz Rosenthal (1914-2003) in which he investigates the tensions and conflicts that existed between individuals and society as the focus of his study of Muslim social history.

    I am very happy with my purchase. The seller did a very good job in packaging and ensuring everything was well protected. The shipping was very fast and came earlier than expected. Everything was as described and I am very pleased. I would recommend this seller for anyone wishing to purchase these good quality books from abroad.
