5852 ABDOLAH, KADER / KORAN De Koran - Een vertaling & De boodschapper - Een vertelling - 1e druk.. 266 + 382 p. 2008 Breda : De Geus HARDCOVER: (Org. gebonden met stofomslag en leeslinten, twee delen in een cassette. ONGELEZEN NIEUW) De Koran en het leven van Mohammad zijn onlosmakelijk met elkaar verbonden. Kader Abolahs vertaling maakt de Koran toegankelijk voor iedereen. De kroniekschrijver Zeeëd is de rechterhand van Mohammad en de man die Allahs openbaringen aan Mohammad verzamelt in een nieuw boek: de Koran. Na de dood van Mohammad vraagt Zeeëd zich af wie de profeet eigenlijk was. Zeeëd besluit langs te gaan bij mensen die de profeet hebben gekend: familie, vrienden, vijanden, volgelingen, wetenschappers, vrouwen en dichters. Op die manier reconstrueert Zeeëd via ooggetuigen het leven van Mohammad, de boodschapper, vanaf zijn geboorte tot aan zijn dood. De lezer krijgt een bijzonder 'eigentijds' beeld van de periode waarin Mohammad opgroeide, hoe hij zijn stad Mekka van de morele ondergang wilde redden en hoe hij zich van profeet ontwikkelde tot een machtig leider.

200392 CONNER, PATRICK 15179: Western Merchants in South China 1700-1900, as seen in Chinese Export Paintings First Edition. . 310 p, 235 colour illustrations ,maps on end papers, bliogr., index,29 x 21 cm. 2009 London : English Art Books HARDCOVER: (Orig. cloth with gilt. Lettering, dust jacket. UNUSED - AS NEW) VERY RARE.. Out of print and very hard to find. Canton - modern Guangzhou - was for nearly a century the only Chinese port at which Westerners were allowed to trade. The Western merchants leased `hongs' outside the city walls - spacious waterfront buildings adapted to suit their own tastes. Here they lived and conducted their often lucrative business, sending back tea and other Chinese products to Europe and North America. The Hongs of Canton offers, for the first time, a history of the `hongs' as seen through Chinese export paintings. These paintings, produced in Canton specifically for visitors from the West, combined Chinese and Western styles. By the 1780s some of the Cantonese export artists were making skilful use of the Western medium of oil paint. Their subjects included not only the façades and interiors of the hongs (known also `factories'), but also shopping streets, gardens, forts, regattas, seagoing junks, the devastating fire of 1822 in its successive stages, and the trial of 52 unruly British sailors. Making extensive use of these pictures, and close-up observation of their details, this book offers a social history of the hongs and their diverse occupants. It considers their changing appearance, the merchants' everyday activities both legitimate and illicit, the rise of `free traders' at the expense of national companies, and the growing friction between the Westerners and their Chinese hosts, culminating in the two `opium wars' of the mid-nineteenth century. After the Western hongs were finally burned down on 1856, Chinese export artists continued to paint the waterfront with its new features - steamer wharves, pawn towers and cathedral, and also the new settlement on Shamian Island, which remained a largely Western enclave until the twentieth century.

AS NEW) Eddy County's 4,198 square miles were carved from the massive land holdings of Lincoln County, then the largest county in the United States, on February 25, 1889. Early Spanish explorers and Native Americans had used the seemingly endless water supply of the Pecos River, which bisects the county, as a trail to the north. Seven Rivers, the first settlement in the Pecos Valley, battled the newly formed town of Eddy for the honor of remaining county seat. Eddy won by a vote of 331 for and 83 against. Although born in lawlessness and diversity, the county flourished as the discoveries of oil, gas, and potash brought industry to support the established fertile agricultural and cattle foundations. This volume explores the early founding families and pioneers and brings to light many of the long-forgotten towns of Dayton, Lookout, Oriental, and Globe that helped form the Eddy County of today.

ALS NIEUW) Hij werd op brute wijze ontvoerd, en zat vijftien maanden in een donker hok van anderhalf bij twee meter tussen de insecten en de muizen. Twintig maanden lang zag hij geen gezichten: hij werd bewaakt door zwaarbewapende mannen met maskers. Hij vreesde meerdere malen voor zijn leven, werd heen en weer geslingerd tussen hoop en wanhoop en voelde zijn einde naderen tijdens nachtelijke ritten in de kofferbak van een auto, op weg naar nieuwe onzekerheid. Arjan Erkel weet de lezer niet alleen vanaf het begin te boeien met zijn indrukwekkende verhaal over zijn ontvoering, die een groot deel van Nederland lange tijd in de ban hield, maar gijzelt als het ware de lezer, die bijna lijfelijk ervaart hoe het is om twintig maanden opgesloten te zitten en van de buitenwereld afgesloten te zijn.

8646 WRIGHT, RICHARD The Colour Curtain. A Report on the Bandung Conference Foreword by Gunnar Myrdal. First edition. . 188 p 1956 London : Dennis Dobson HARDCOVER: (Orig.black gilt. cloth, Name on end paper. Bit browning.Dust jacket small tear. VERY GOOD) RARE and SOUGHT AFTER, particularly this first edition. This indispensable work urging removal of the color barrier remains one of the key commentaries on the question of race in the modern era. First published in 1956, it arose from Richard Wright's participation in a global conference held in Bandung, Indonesia, in April 1955. With this report of what happened at Bandung, Wright exhorts Western nations, largely responsible for the poverty and ignorance in their former colonies, to destroy racial impediments and to work with the leadership of the new nations in moving toward modernization and industrialization under a free democratic system rather than under Communist totalitarianism. Richard Nathaniel Wright (September 4, 1908 - November 28, 1960) was an American author of sometimes controversial novels, short stories, poems, and non-fiction. Much of his literature concerns racial themes, especially those involving the plight of African Americans during the late 19th to mid-20th centuries. Literary critics believe his work helped change race relations in the United States in the mid-20th century.
