征服与革命中的阿拉伯人：1516年至今
(uk) Eugene Rogan
The history of the Arab world is a bloody story of colonization, war and resistance, but also a diverse and moving story full of creativity. In this groundbreaking work for both the popular and the secular, award-winning Oxford historian Eugene Rogan draws extensively on five centuries of Arab sources to place the Arab experience in its critical historical context and to present it objectively from the perspective of the Arabs themselves. Covering the entire Arab world from North Africa to the Arabian Peninsula, this landmark book explores every aspect of modern Arab history. Starting from the conquest of the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century, to the era of European imperialism, the superpower competition during the Cold War, and now to the current era of American hegemony, Rogan vividly depicts the evolution of Arab identity and the tortuous journey of striving for national sovereignty and realizing national rejuvenation over the past five hundred years. He explores the historical causes of many difficulties in the Arab world today, and is full of authoritative and wise academic insights. In many parts of the world, the history, culture and character of the Arab nation are often seriously misunderstood. This book is an essential choice for anyone who wants a clear, efficient, and reliable understanding of the modern Arab world.
