|  | In the Palaces of the Sultan by
As Anna Bowman Dodd (1855-1929), a New York travel writer and journalist, journeyed to Istanbul with the American Ambassador to France she embarked on a detailed account of the city and its people. Interested in documenting the changes in Turkey brought about by the "embrace" of modernity and progress, she considers Turkish women's rights, harems and marriage, the management of the household, education, slavery, the Sultan's reign, and nationalist movements in the last days of the Ottoman Empire. She caters to the American market for Orientalism but is also reflexive about its employment, both invoking and undercutting stereotypes as she addresses the "Eastern Question." |

|  | The Phoenician Solar Theology by
This book, the first study of its kind, contends that an authentic Phoenician solar theology existed, reaching back to at least the fifth or sixth century BCE. Through Azize’s examination, a portrait of a vibrant Phoenician tradition of spiritual thought emerges: a native tradition not dependent upon Hellenic thought, but related to other Semitic cultures of the ancient Near East, and, of course, to Egypt. In light of this analysis, it can be seen that Phoenician religion possessed a unique organizing power in which the sun, the sun god, life, death, and humanity, were linked in a profound system. |

The Annals, or history of the world, of Al-Tabari (ca. 839-923) is by far the most important historical source for the early history of Islam. Later Muslim historians, such as Ibn Miskawaih and Ibn al-Athir made use of and built on Al-Tabari's Annals.
The Annals cover the history of the world from the earliest period of the patriarchs, prophets, and rulers down to July 915. It includes the history of the Sasanian period, the period of the Prophet Muhammad and the first four caliphs, the history of the Umaiyads, and lastly the history of the Abbasids. The Annals was continued by the Spanish Arabi scholar `Arib covering 903-932, also included in this edition.
Al-Tabari studied in Iraq, Syria, and Egypt, but spent most of his life in Baghdad, the capital of Islamic civilization during his lifetime. In his Annals and other works, he laid the foundations for Islamic historical sciences.
