{"product_id":"the-feeling-of-history-charles-hirschkind-9780226746814","title":"The Feeling of History: Islam, Romanticism, and Andalusia","description":"In today's world, the lines between Europe and the Middle East, between Christian Europeans and Muslim immigrants in their midst, seem to be hardening. Alarmist editorials compare the arrival of Muslim refugees with the \"Muslim conquest of 711,\" warning that Europe will be called on to defend its borders. Violence and paranoia are alive and well in Fortress Europe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAgainst this xenophobic tendency, The Feeling of History\u003c\/i\u003e examines the idea of \u003ci\u003eAndalucismo\u003c\/i\u003e--a modern tradition founded on the principle that contemporary Andalusia is connected in vitally important ways with medieval Islamic Iberia. Charles Hirschkind explores the works and lives of writers, thinkers, poets, artists, and activists, and he shows how, taken together, they constitute an Andalusian sensorium. Hirschkind also carefully traces the various itineraries of Andalucismo, from colonial and anticolonial efforts to contemporary movements supporting immigrant rights. \u003ci\u003eThe Feeling of History\u003c\/i\u003e offers a nuanced view into the way people experience their own past, while also bearing witness to a philosophy of engaging the Middle East that experiments with alternative futures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Hirschkind\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 022674681X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226746814\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/04\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2022","brand":"Charles Hirschkind","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43942595297535,"sku":"9780226746814","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_050166f4-3ac3-4578-bdb4-1ea772667224.jpg?v=1681493262","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-feeling-of-history-charles-hirschkind-9780226746814","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
