This study regards the concept of 'society' as foundational to modern self-understanding. Identifying Arabic conceptualizations of society in the journal al-Manar, the mouthpiece of Islamic reformism, the author shows how modernity was articulated from within an Islamic discursive tradition. The fact that the classical term umma was a principal term used to conceptualize modern society suggests the convergence of discursive traditions in modernity, rather than a mere diffusion of European concepts. 410 0$aReligion and society (Hague, Netherlands) ;$v76. 606 $aCivilization, Modern 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCivilization, Modern. 676 $a909.08 700 $aZemmin$b Florian$01050814 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910467059103321 996 $aModernity in islamic tradition$92480928 997 $aUNINA
