4.9/5 (17909 ratings)
Description:Europe's claim to define the basic frameworks of the human future was exorbitant, as was its willingness to hold the whole world under its watch. Here, the author attempts to jointly question Islam and Europe, understood as two parallel destinies, but also as two great specific cultures. It was first necessary to foil the European outlook on Islam, the gaze of a rival both hostile and fascinated, which would end up expressing the greed for domination - a gaze in which Europe itself reveals itself, which is sought and thus asserted himself. From the Crusaders to the ethnologists of colonization, passing through Germany, which was obsessed with the East, the author restores the main images that Europe has of Islam, to deny it, to deform it. and sometimes exalt it. These two cultures have known each other, ignored each other, and despised each other. Two stories intersected, confronted, fought in an adventure that now appears united. By a fair return of things, the culture of the West, of looking becomes watched, and it is possible for a Maghrebian Muslim to speak about it and to enlighten us on the being of Europe, by speaking to us about the be of Islam. And it is then that common questions arise: what is modernity? alienation? What is important, is it the clash of two civilizations or the unique challenge that is launched to them?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
