It explores the concepts and images which Muslim scholars from the 8th to the 14th century presented in their writings and, in particular, ponders the ways in which these authors used specific methods of portrayal-either overtly or more subtly-to advance their ideas. The fresh theoretical and methodological approaches applied in this book facilitate the understanding of how medieval Muslim writers expressed their views and, more importantly, why they expressed them in the way they did. This helps disclose, for example, how the images of historically or religiously significant figures in Arabic-Islamic culture have been developed and shaped in the process of their "literarization.". 410 0$aIslamic History and Civilization ;$v58. 517 3 $aInsights into Classical Arabic Literature and Islam 606 $aArabic literature 606 $aCivilization 606 $aArabic literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aIslamic philosophy 607 $aIslamic Empire$xCivilization 607 $aIslamic Empire$xIntellectual life 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArabic literature. 615 0$aCivilization. 615 0$aArabic literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aIslamic philosophy. 676 $a909/.09767 702 $aGünther$b Sebastian 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451196703321 996 $aIdeas, images, and methods of portrayal$92181432 997 $aUNINA
