“Adaletsizliği değiştiremezsiniz ama adaletsizlik karşısındaki duruşunuzu değiştirebilirsiniz.” Haysiyet kırgınlığının ayaklanması, ruhun ayaklanmasıdır. Ayaklanabilen bir ruhsa, insanın mucizesidir. İnsanı insan yapan yegâne mucize... Yaşamaktaki efsun, insan ruhunun haysiyet okyanusuna dalmasıyla bulunur ancak. Haklı, haksızın zorbalığı karşısında kendini kurban etmekten vazgeçtiği gün kaderin makûs döngüsü de değişir. Kuzu, kurda av olmaktan bıkmıştır artık. Boyun eğmek yerine haysiyetini korumak yolunu seçmiştir. Pınarın suyunda onun da kurt kadar hakkı vardır çünkü. Hırlayan kurdun keskin dişlerinden ve tehdidinden korkarak yaşamak da bir tür intihardır ne de olsa... Kuzular, kurda av oldukları masalın sonunu yeniden yazmak istiyor artık.

Mosques, dervish lodges, mausolea, libraries, even baths and market places bear masterpieces of calligraphy that rival the most refined of books and scrolls.

Immanuel Kant's views on politics, peace, and history have lost none of their relevance since their publication more than two centuries ago. This volume contains a comprehensive collection of Kant's writings on international relations theory and political philosophy, superbly translated and accompanied by stimulating essays. Pauline Kleingeld provides a lucid introduction to the main themes of the volume, and three essays by distinguished contributors follow: Jeremy Waldron on Kant's theory of the state; Michael W. Doyle on the implications of Kant's political theory for his theory of international relations; and Allen W. Wood on Kant's philosophical approach to history and its current relevance.

Islamicate Occult Sciences in Theory and Practice brings together the latest research on Islamic occult sciences from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, namely intellectual history, manuscript studies and material culture. Its aim is not only to showcase the range of pioneering work that is currently being done in these areas, but also to provide a model for closer interaction amongst the disciplines constituting this burgeoning field of study. Furthermore, the book provides the rare opportunity to bridge the gap on an institutional level by bringing the academic and curatorial spheres into dialogue. Contributors include: Charles Burnett, Jean-Charles Coulon, Maryam Ekhtiar, Noah Gardiner, Christiane Gruber, Bink Hallum, Francesca Leoni, Matthew Melvin-Koushki, Michael Noble, Rachel Parikh, Liana Saif, Maria Subtelny, Farouk Yahya, and Travis Zadeh.
Magic and divination in early Islam encompassed a wide range of practices, including belief in jinn, warding off the evil eye, the production of amulets and other magical equipment, conjuring, wonder-working, dream interpretation, predicting the weather, casting lots, astrology, and physiognomy. The ten studies here are concerned with the pre-Islamic antecedents of such practices, and with the theory of magic in healing, the nature and use of amulets and their decipherment, the arts of astrometeorology and geomancy, the refutation of astrology, and the role of the astrologer in society. Some of the studies are highly illustrated, some long out of print, some revised or composed for this volume, and one translated into English for the first time. These fundamental investigations, together with the introductory bibliographic essay, are intended as a guide to the concepts, terminology, and basic scholarly literature of an important, but often overlooked, aspect of classical Islamic culture.
