In chapters ranging from Ottoman history to Venetian publishing, from portraits of St George to Arab philosophy, from cannibalism to diplomacy, the authors interrogate what all too often may seem to be settled certainties, such as the difference between East and West, the invariable conflict between Islam and Christianity, and the 'rebirth' of European civilization from roots in classical Greece and Imperial Rome.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eJERRY BROTTON Senior Lecturer in Renaissance Studies, Queen Mary, University of London, UK\r\nWILLIAM DALRYMPLE Historian and writer\r\nCAROLINE FINKEL Historian and writer\r\nDEBORAH HOWARD Professor of Architectural History, University of Cambridge, UK\r\nROBERT IRWIN Writer and Research Associate, History Department, School of Oriental and African Studies, UK\r\nPHILIP MANSEL Historian and writer\r\nNABIL MATAR Professor of English, Head of Department of Humanities and Communication, Florida Institute of Technology, USA\r\nBARNABY ROGERSON Historian and writer\r\nPHILIP SCHWYZER Lecturer in English, University of Exeter, UK\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 October 2005\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan UK\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781403992338\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e187\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50804908097676,"sku":"9781403992338","price":98.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781403992338.jpg?v=1781787775","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781403992338","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
