Show moreFull-length standing portrait showing five Muslim pilgrims from the island of Ambon, from the Kai Islands and from Banda in Indonesia. On the left, a boy described as the son of a man from the island of Ambon and a woman from Mecca. The adults face forward, looking towards the camera, while the young man averts his eyes. The photograph was probably taken by Snouck Hurgronje in Jeddah or Mecca between 1884 and 1885. The group is photographed in a courtyard-like space with plants – some in wide wooden pots – foliage and a window, fronted by bars, visible in the background. The negatives had handwork applied. Title and date from item. Plate no. 30 in Bilder-Atlas zu Mekka (Haag : Martinus Nijhoff, 1888-1889). The plate is numbered (XXIX) and titled in German under the image.

Show moreAn Arab Muslim woman born in Beirut in 1918 weaves together reflections on her personal struggle for independence with an account of her extended family's dislocation in the violent political upheavals of the Middle East. As Lisa Majaj points out in her insightful introduction, this is no simplistic account of an Islamic woman rescued by the West. Nadia's family is both oppressive and supportive. Forced into an arranged marriage as a young teenager, she feels little for her husband but loves her in-laws more than her own selfish parents. Later, she is torn between passionate love for another man and loyalty to her children, and she struggles for education and a career. Most moving is the account of how her privileged family is suddenly uprooted by the Jewish takeover of their home in Haifa. Fay Afaf Kanafani ; introduction by Lisa Suhair Majaj. "An East gate book." Includes index. Main Heritage Compact General E184.A65 K36 1999 Reference Item-ID: i16875941 BIB-ID: 1511034 Show less
