ISBN10: 1616405031, ISBN13: 9781616405038, [publisher: Cosimo Classics] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This classic biography is not a religious text designed to either celebrate or denigrate Islam. It looks at Mohammed as a towering figure of culture and politics, a man who achieved the extraordinary: uniting disparate Arab tribes into a more cohesive whole. This book remains an important work for anyone wishing to understand the roots of one of the most intractable sociopolitical divides-between East and West, Muslim and Christian-still haunting the world today. Author David S. Margoliouth (1858-1940), a professor of Arabic at Oxford University, worked from primary Arabic texts and omitted 'all anecdotes that are obviously or most probably fabulous,' resulting in a clear-headed history of a highly contentious moment in time.
