In this incisive and revealing book, Richard Bourne shows how a country that had every prospect of success when it achieved independence became a brutal police state less than thirty years later, plagued by hyperinflation and collapsing life expectancy and abandoned by a third of its citizens. Beginning with the British conquest and covering events up to the present precarious political situation, Catastrophe is the most comprehensive, up-to-date and readable account of the ongoing crisis in Zimbabwe. Bourne shows that Zimbabwe's tragedy is not just about Mugabe's 'evil' but about history, Africa today and the world's attitudes towards it."--Page [4] of book cover. 606 $aPolitics & government$2bicssc 607 $aZimbabwe$xPolitics and government$y1980- 607 $aZimbabwe$xPolitics and government$y20th century 607 $aZimbabwe$xEconomic policy 607 $aZimbabwe$xEconomic conditions 615 7$aPolitics & government 676 $a968.91051 700 $aBourne$b Richard$f1940-$01086927 801 0$bN 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810972103321 996 $aCatastrophe$94089199 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04065nam 22006255 450 001 9910855387403321 005 20240701133759.0 010 $a9783031483677 010 $a3031483677 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-48367-7 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC31318083 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL31318083 035 $a(CKB)31869353700041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-48367-7 035 $a(OCoLC)1432604342 035 $a(EXLCZ)9931869353700041 100 $a20240502d2024 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aMevlevi Manuscripts, 1268?c. 1400 $eA Study of the Sources /$fby Cailah Jackson 205 $a1st ed. 2024. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer Nature Switzerland :$cImprint: Springer,$d2024. 215 $a1 online resource (169 pages) 311 08$a9783031483660 311 08$a3031483669 327 $a1 Introduction -- 2 The Manuscript Sources -- 3 Texts and Intellectual Interests -- 4 Scribes, Patrons and Readers -- 5 Locations of Manuscript Production -- 6 Conclusion -- 7 Appendices. 330 $a?This important study of Mevlevi manuscripts is an outstanding piece of scholarship, based on a close examination of numerous often neglected manuscript sources. It sheds new light not just on the manuscripts themselves, but also the early Mevlevi community ? its artists, artisans, and patrons, and their intellectual interests. It makes a significant contribution both to art historical scholarship and to the growing field of Islamic manuscript studies, and will be required reading for anyone interested in medieval Anatolia or Sufism.? ?Professor A. C. S. Peacock, University of St Andrews, UK This book provides a detailed and carefully researched catalogue of over 140 manuscripts related to the Mevlevi Sufis in their formative period during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. It also offers an in-depth and rigorous analysis of the manuscript material, which reveals much about the role of manuscripts in early Mevlevi life, the identity of disciples who were scribes and manuscript owners, and the geographical spread of the Sufi group. The Mevlevi Sufis were one of the most important and prominent socio-religious groups to emerge in late medieval Anatolia, following the Mongol conquests of the 1240s. Sometimes known colloquially as the ?whirling dervishes,? the Mevlevis became particularly powerful under Ottoman rule in the early modern period, even counting some sultans as their disciples. However, there is still much to learn about their earliest days, following the death of their ?patron saint? Jalal al-Din Rumi in 1273. Rumi is of course also notable as the author of the Masnavi, an extensive work of Sufi poetry written in rhyming couplets that is the core of Mevlevi ritual and learning. Beyond Mevlevi circles, Rumi remains very popular today as a ?mystic? poet. This study sheds new light on the intellectual culture of his time.
