But what it finds is a city abandoned by its inhabitants - save only the men who emerge to fan the flames as incendiary fuses hidden throughout the empty buildings of Moscow set the city alight. For three days Moscow burned, while looters dodged the fires to plunder and pillage. And so begins 1812: Napoleon in Moscow, Paul Britten Austin's atmospheric second volume in his acclaimed trilogy on Napoleon's catastrophic invasion of Russia.After the fires died down the army settled in the ruins of Moscow; for fNapoleonic Wars, 1800-1815CampaignsRussia (Federation)MoscowElectronic books.Napoleonic Wars, 1800-1815Campaigns940.2742094731Austin Paul Britten684396MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK991046417170332118122459385UNINA07199nam 2200721Ia 450 991081196670332120240416114015.00-8014-6489-70-8014-6483-810.7591/9780801464836(CKB)2550000000075010(EBL)3138280(OCoLC)769190460(SSID)ssj0000551541(PQKBManifestationID)11338742(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000551541(PQKBWorkID)10527155(PQKB)10535322(MiAaPQ)EBC3138280(MdBmJHUP)muse28771(DE-B1597)480125(OCoLC)898069510(DE-B1597)9780801464836(Au-PeEL)EBL3138280(CaPaEBR)ebr10516004(CaONFJC)MIL768205(EXLCZ)99255000000007501020090924d2010 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrIslam in the world today a handbook of politics, religion, culture, and society /edited by Werner Ende and Udo Steinbach1st ed.Ithaca, NY Cornell University Press20101 online resource (1134 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-8014-4571-X Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Frontmatter --Contents --Preface --Part One: Historical Expansion, Political and Religious History --I.

Now, Cornell University Press is making this invaluable resource accessible to English-language readers.More current than the latest German edition on which it is based, Islam in the World Today covers a comprehensive array of topics in concise essays by some of the world's leading experts on Islam, including:• the history of Islam from the earliest years through the twentieth century, with particular attention to Sunni and Shi'i Islam and Islamic revival movements during the last three centuries;• data on the advance of Islam along with current population statistics;• Muslim ideas on modern economics, on social order, and on attempts to modernize Islamic law (shari'a) and apply it in contemporary Muslim societies;• Islam in diaspora, especially the situation in Europe and America;• secularism, democracy, and human rights; and• women in Islam Twenty-four essays are each devoted to a specific Muslim country or a country with significant Muslim minorities, spanning Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the former Soviet Union.Additional essays illuminate Islamic culture, exploring local traditions; the languages and dialects of Muslim peoples; and art, architecture, and literature. Detailed bibliographies and indexes ensure the book's usefulness as a reference work.Islam20th centuryIslam21st centuryIslamHistoryIslam and stateIslamic civilizationIslamIslamIslamHistory.Islam and state.Islamic civilization.29711.80bclEnde Werner1937-1603285Steinbach Udo673355MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811966703321Islam in the world today3927599UNINA
