Condition: NEW. Roma: École française de Rome, 2023 9782728315574 Collection de l'École française de Rome 609 809 384 p. : ill. col., indice, biografia ; 24 cm. En quoi les missions chrétiennes du Levant ont-elles été des lieux de production de savoirs « orientaux » ? Comment ces connaissances ont-elles circulé de part et d'autr…e de la Méditerranée ? Comment ont-elles été reformulées et réappropriées localement ? Cet ouvrage se penche sur l'assimilation en Europe de connaissances relatives aux cultures chrétiennes-orientales et sur le rôle que les missions ont joué dans ces processus. Il examine les transformations de ces derniers. Collectés et élaborés dans les grandes bibliothèques et universités européennes, puis intégrés par les structures de gouvernance des Églises, ils ont bien souvent aussi été réappropriés dans l'espace d'où ils étaient issus. Ils ont donné lieu à des processus patrimoniaux, à côté des expériences tragiques de la fin de l'Empire ottoman et de l'établissement de nouveaux États. Ce travail éclaire ainsi la dimension intellectuelle des dynamiques d'arabisation des Églises locales, de reformulation des frontières confessionnelles, de prise de conscience patrimoniale et de construction d'identités communautaires et nationales au Moyen-Orient. Il montre finalement comment les missions contribuent à la mise en valeur du patrimoine culturel oriental, et comment le domaine du savoir participe d'une évolution de la notion de mission depuis la période ottomane.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book explores the significance of alcohol in the Middle East and Maghreb as a powerful catalyst of social and political division. It shows that the solidarities and polarities created by disputes over alcohol are built on arguments far more complex than oppositions on religion or consum…ption alone. In a region in which alcohol is banned by Islamic rules, yet allows its production and consumption, alcohol has always been contentious. However, this volume examines the different forms of social authority religious, cultural and political to offer a new understanding of drinking behaviours in the Middle East and North Africa. It suggests that alcohol, being at the same time an import and product of local industry, epitomises the tensions inherent to the conforming of Islamic societies to global trends, which seek to redefine political communities, social hierarchies and gender roles. The chapters challenge common misconceptions about alcohol in this region, arguing instead that medical discourses on alcohol dependency hide stances on national independence in an imperialist context; that the focus on religion also tends to conceal disputes on alcohol as a social struggle; and that disputes on inebriation are more about masculinity than judging private leisure. In doing so, the volume presents alcohol as a way of grasping the power relations that structure the societies of the Middle East and Maghreb. This book explores the significance of alcohol in the Middle East and Maghreb as a powerful catalyst of social and political division. The chapters challenge common misconceptions about alcohol in this region, arguing instead that medical discourses on alcohol dependency hide stances on national independence in an imperialist context; Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
