Ranging from Arabia to India and Southeast Asia, Engseng Ho explores the transcultural exchanges-in kinship and writing-that enabled Hadrami Yemeni descendants of the Muslim prophet Muhammad to become locals in each of the three regions yet remain cosmopolitans with vital connections across the ocean. At home throughout the Indian Ocean, diasporic Hadramis engaged European empires in surprising ways across its breadth, beyond the usual territorial confines of colonizer and colonized. A work of both anthropology and history, this book brilliantly demonstrates how the emerging fields of world history and transcultural studies are coming together to provide groundbreaking ways of studying religion, diaspora, and empire. Ho interprets biographies, family histories, chronicles, pilgrimage manuals and religious law as the unified literary output of a diaspora that hybridizes both texts and persons within a genealogy of Prophetic descent. By using anthropological concepts to read Islamic texts in Arabic and Malay, he demonstrates the existence of a hitherto unidentified canon of diasporic literature. His supple conceptual framework and innovative use of documentary and field evidence are elegantly combined to present a vision of this vital world region beyond the histories of trade and European empire. 410 0$aCalifornia world history library ;$v3. 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural & Social$2bisacsh 607 $aH?ad?ramawt (Yemen : Province)$xHistory 607 $aH?ad?ramawt (Yemen : Province)$xEmigration and immigration$xHistory 607 $aTari?m (Yemen)$xAntiquities 610 $aanthropology. 610 $aarabia. 610 $acolonial rule. 610 $acultural anthropologists. 610 $adiaspora studies. 610 $adiaspora. 610 $adiasporic literature. 610 $aeurope. 610 $afamily histories. 610 $agenealogy. 610 $ahadramis. 610 $ahistorians. 610 $ahistory and sociology. 610 $aindia. 610 $aindian ocean. 610 $ainternational relations. 610 $aislam. 610 $aislamic texts. 610 $aliterary studies. 610 $amalay. 610 $amigration. 610 $amuhammad. 610 $amuslims. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apostcolonialism. 610 $aregional history. 610 $areligious studies. 610 $asoutheast asia. 610 $atextbooks. 610 $atranscultural exchange. 610 $atranscultural studies. 610 $aworld history. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural & Social. 676 $a953.35 700 $aHo$b Engseng$f1961-$01240234 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784406103321 996 $aThe graves of Tarim$93691853 997 $aUNINA
