Saharan Crossroads offers a unique contribution to existing scholarship on the region by uniting a diverse group of African, European, and American scholars working on various facets of trans-Saharan history, social life, and cultural production, and bringing their work together for the first time. This trilingual volume includes eleven chapters written in English, five chapters in French, and three chapters in Arabic, reflecting the multicultural nature of the Sahara and this international project.Saharan Crossroads explores historical and contemporary connections and exchanges between populations living in and on both sides of the Sahara that have led to the emergence of distinctive cultural and aesthetic expressions. This contact has been fostered by a series of linkages that include the trans-Saharan caravan trade, the spread of Islam, the migration of nomadic pastoralists, and European colonization. The book includes three major sections: (1) history, culture, and identity; (2) trans-Saharan circulation of arts, music, ritual performance, and architecture; and (3) religion, law, language, and writing. While the gaze of international political analysts has turned toward the Sahara to follow problematic developments that pose serious threats to human rights and security in the region, it is especially timely to recall that the people and countries of the Sahelo-Saharan world have maintained long histories of peaceful coexistence, interdependence, and cooperation that are too often overlooked in the present.Education, SecondaryAfrica, Sub-SaharanEducational assistanceAfrica, Sub-SaharanEducational assistanceEducation, SecondaryEducational assistanceEducational assistance.373.6Deubel Tara F.Youngstedt Scott M.Tissières HélèneAdamu Abdalla UbaMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791017803321Saharan crossroads3692224UNINA01472nam0 22002891i 450 UON0002917820231205102052.90320020107d1986 |0itac50 baengGB|||| 1||||An Atlas of the Mughal EmpirePolitical and Economic Maps with Detailed Notes, Bibliography and IndexIrfan HabibCentre of Advanced Study in history Aligarh Muslim UniversityDelhiOxford University Press1982 xvii105 p.carte geog. ; 44 cmINDIAATLANTI STORICIPERIODO MOGHULUONC009628FIINDIAATLANTI POLITICIUONC009629FIINDIAATLANTI ECONOMICIUONC017040FIINNew DelhiUONL000110SI IV BSUBCONT.
