This edition brings to a new generation of readers Annemarie Schimmel's historical treatment of the transnational phenomenon of Sufism, from its beginnings through the nineteenth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSchimmel's sensitivity and deep understanding of Sufism--its origins, development, and historical context--as well as her erudite examination of Sufism as reflected in Islamic poetry, draw readers into the mood, the vision, and the way of the Sufi. In the foreword, distinguished Islam scholar Carl W. Ernst comments on the continuing vitality of Schimmel's book and the advances in the study of Sufism that have occurred since the work first appeared. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annemarie Schimmel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807899763\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807899762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of North Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/08\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.14h x 6.27w x 1.30d","brand":"Annemarie Schimmel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43986696339711,"sku":"9780807899762","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cc62f6ae-4e60-48ff-b5ef-077720fe1f18.jpg?v=1683284801","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mystical-dimensions-of-islam-annemarie-schimmel-9780807899762","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
