Bringing together writings on political and social reform with literary works, Noorani challenges dominant assumptions about the emergence of modernity. It shows that while nationalist, liberal, and democratic ideals emerged in the Middle East under European influence, these ideals were nevertheless created out of existing cultural values by reformers and intellectuals. The central element of this process, the book argues, was the transformation of virtue into nationality.Palgrave Studies in Cultural and Intellectual History,2945-6649CivilizationHistoryMiddle EastHistoryWorld historySocial historyHistory, ModernCultural HistoryHistory of the Middle EastWorld History, Global and Transnational HistorySocial HistoryModern HistoryCivilizationHistory.Middle EastHistory.World history.Social history.History, Modern.Cultural History.History of the Middle East.World History, Global and Transnational History.Social History.Modern History.962.04962/.04Noorani Yaseen1966-1792445MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962113603321Culture and Hegemony in the Colonial Middle East4331007UNINA
