Disciplining the Domestic Sphere, Developing the Modern Family --NOTES --GLOSSARY --BIBLIOGRAPHY --INDEXWhile doing fieldwork in the modernizing Javanese city of Solo during the late 1980's, Suzanne Brenner came upon a neighborhood that seemed like a museum of a bygone era: Laweyan, a once-thriving production center of batik textiles, had embraced modernity under Dutch colonial rule, only to fend off the modernizing forces of the Indonesian state during the late twentieth century. Focusing on this community, Brenner examines what she calls the making of the "unmodern." She portrays a merchant enclave clinging to its distinctive forms of social life and highlights the unique power of women in the marketplace and the home--two domains closely linked to each other through local economies of production and exchange. Against the social, political, and economic developments of late-colonial and postcolonial Java, Brenner describes how an innovative, commercially successful lifestyle became an anachronism in Indonesian society, thereby challenging the idea that tradition invariably gives way to modernity in an evolutionary progression. Brenner's analysis centers on the importance of gender to processes of social transformation. In Laweyan, the base of economic and social power has shifted from families, in which women were the main producers of wealth and cultural value, to the Indonesian state, which has worked to reorient families toward national political agendas. How such attempts affect women's lives and the meaning of the family itself are key considerations as Brenner questions long-held assumptions about the division between "domestic" and "public" spheres in modern society.EthnologyIndonesiaSurakartaSocial changeIndonesiaSurakartaWomenIndonesiaSurakartaSurakarta (Indonesia)Social conditionsElectronic books.EthnologySocial changeWomen306/.09598/2Brenner Suzanne April1960-1016458MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458013303321The domestication of desire2378380UNINA04170nam 2200625 a 450 991078207870332120231206205635.01-282-86069-097866128606900-7735-7051-910.1515/9780773570511(CKB)1000000000521377(SSID)ssj0000279226(PQKBManifestationID)11227264(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000279226(PQKBWorkID)10260460(PQKB)10980424(CaPaEBR)400731(Au-PeEL)EBL3331291(CaPaEBR)ebr10141964(CaONFJC)MIL286069(OCoLC)929121686(DE-B1597)655850(DE-B1597)9780773570511(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/n6gd2h(MiAaPQ)EBC3331291(MiAaPQ)EBC3245592(EXLCZ)99100000000052137720030411e20021966 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEthico-religious concepts in the Qurʼān /Toshihiko IzutsuMontreal ;Ithaca, NY :McGill-Queen's University Press,2002.©20021 online resource (xv, 284 pages)First published in 1959 under title: The structure of the ethical terms in the Koran.Originally published: 1966.0-7735-2426-6 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Front Matter -- Contents -- Foreword -- Preface -- Principles of Semantic Analysis -- Language and Culture -- The Scope and Focus of the Study -- The Method of Analysis and its Application -- From Tribal-Code to Islamic Ethics -- The Pessimistic Conception of the Earthly Life -- The Spirit of Tribal Solidarity -- The Islamization of Old Arab Virtues -- The Basic Moral Dichotomy -- The Analysis of Major Concepts -- The Inner Structure of the Concept of Kufr -- The Semantic Field of Kufr -- Religious Hypocrisy -- The Believer -- Good and Bad -- Conclusion -- Index of Qur’anic Citations -- Index of Arabic Words -- Index of SubjectsIn the Ethico-Religious Concepts in the Qur'án Toshihiko Izutsu analyzes the guiding spirit of the Islamic moral code, the basic ethical relationship of man to God. Izutsu asserts that, according to the Qur'anic conception, God is of an ethical nature and acts upon man in an ethical way. The resulting implications for man are enormous, requiring devotion not merely to God but to living one's life ethically. Izutsu shows that for the Qur'an our ethical response to God's actions is religion itself; it is at the same time both ethics and religion. Izutsu explores these themes by employing ethnolinguistics, a theory of the interrelations between linguistic cultural patterns, to analyse the semantic structure of major concepts in the Quar'an. Islam, which arose in the seventh century, represents one of the most sweeping religious reforms ever to appear in the East. The Quar'an shows in vividly concrete terms how time-honoured tribal norms came into bloody conflict with new ideals of life, and finally yielded to the rising power. This transitional epoch is of particular importance in the whole of Islamic thought, a time during which the key terms of a traditionally fixed system of values were transformed in their connotative structure, modified in their combinations, and finally integrated into an entirely different system. Originally published in 1959 as The Structure of the Ethical Terms in the Koran and revised under the current title in 1966, this 2002 reprint makes this classic work of Islamic studies once again available.RELIGION / Islam / GeneralbisacshRELIGION / Islam / General.297.1/226Izutsu Toshihiko1914-1993.1514953MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782078703321Ethico-religious concepts in the Qurʼān3750444UNINA
