Beskrivning
This second collective volume of the series The Presence of the Prophet explores the growing importance of the figure of the Prophet Muhammad for questions of authority and power in early modern and modern times.The authors provide a rich collection of case studies on how Muhammad’s material, spiritual, and genealogical heritage has been claimed for the foundation of Muslim empires, revolutionary movements, the formation of modern nation states and ideologies, as well as for communal mobilization and social reform.This novel comparative, and diachronic study, which is unique for its wide coverage of regional cases and perspectives, reveals diverse political representations of the Prophet in an increasingly globalised struggle over the control of his image between secularization and sacralization.ContributorsGianfranco Bria, Rachida Chih, Christoph Günther, Gottfried Hagen, Jan-Peter Hartung, David Jordan, Soraya Khodamoradi, Jamal Malik, Catherine Mayeur-Jaouen, Alix Philippon, Martin Riexinger, Stefan Reichmuth, Dilek Sarmis, Renaud Soler, Jaafar Ben El Haj Soulami, Florian Zemmin.

Recensioner i media

"The work is a ground-breaking tour de force that has advanced knowledge and scholarship on the historical and missionary Prophet to the realm of an enduring world of intellectual and evolving cosmos of permanent realism. A fertile area of research has now been exposed such that this and other volumes in the series have become an indispensable library item for all those interested in knowing more about the Prophet of Islam in his sublimity and the society’s representation of him, whatever the sectarian or cultural diversity, both in temporal and spatial continuum. No library or institution should be without them." -Amidu Olalekan Sanni, The Muslim World Book Review , 44:1, 2023.
