{"product_id":"scriptural-geography-edwin-james-aiken-9781845118181","title":"Scriptural Geography: Portraying the Holy Land","description":"For nineteenth century scholars the Holy Land was not just a region of the globe - it was an idea, an intellectual and moral space charged with the heat of debate between those trying to understand the religious, social and scientific upheavals of the time. Edwin Aiken explores the various ways in which geographical knowledge was used in these debates. In particular he shows how religious writers called upon geographical knowledge to the benefit of their readers. The result is an original and stimulating work of scholarship that demonstrates the significance of the geography of the Holy Land in Western thought and argument, and makes important contributions to the history of geography, the nature of Orientalism, and to the evolving relationship between religion and science.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edwin James Aiken\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1845118189\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781845118181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.50w x 1.10d","brand":"Edwin James Aiken","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47425402503423,"sku":"9781845118181","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c68b92d1-cd7a-4090-9ba8-d8da517f77aa.jpg?v=1761538976","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/scriptural-geography-edwin-james-aiken-9781845118181","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
