"The Muslim afterworld, with its imagery rich in sensual promises, has shaped Western perceptions of Islam for centuries. However, to date, no single study has done justice to the full spectrum of traditions of thinking about the topic in Islamic history. The Muslim hell, in particular, remains a little studied subject. This book, which is based on a wide array of carefully selected Arabic and Persian texts, covers not only the theological and exegetical but also the philosophical, mystical, topographical, architectural and ritual aspects of the Muslim belief in paradise and hell, in both the Sunni and the Shiʻi world. By examining a broad range of sources related to the afterlife, Christian Lange shows that Muslim religious literature, against transcendentalist assumptions to the contrary, often pictures the boundary between this world and the otherworld as being remarkably thin, or even permeable"--

How was the use of violence against Muslims explained and justified in medieval Islam? What role did state punishment play in delineating the private from the public sphere? What strategies were deployed to cope with the suffering caused by punishment? These questions are explored in Christian Lange's in-depth study of the phenomenon of punishment, both divine and human, in eleventh-to-thirteenth-century Islamic society. The book examines the relationship between state and society in meting out justice, Muslim attitudes to hell and the punishments that were in store in the afterlife, and the legal dimensions of punishment. The cross-disciplinary approach embraced in this study, which is based on a wide variety of Persian and Arabic sources, sheds light on the interplay between theory and practice in Islamic criminal law, and between executive power and the religious imagination of medieval Muslim society at large.

Die altorientalischen Kirchen des Christentums sind ein Faszinosum. Als ›altorientalische Kirchen‹ bezeichnet man die christlichen Konfessionen aus Afrika und dem Nahen Osten, die ihre Traditionen seit der Antike bewahrt haben. Sie sind nicht nur deshalb von Interesse, weil ihre Angehörigen oft als Die altorientalischen Kirchen des Christentums sind ein Faszinosum. Als ›altorientalische Kirchen‹ bezeichnet man die christlichen Konfessionen aus Afrika und dem Nahen Osten, die ihre Traditionen seit der Antike bewahrt haben. Sie sind nicht nur deshalb von Interesse, weil ihre Angehörigen oft als Minderheiten in muslimischen Staaten überdauert haben, sondern auch weil in ihnen die Gestalt der frühchristlichen Kirchen noch deutlich erkennbar ist. Zu diesen wichtigen lebendigen Zeugnissen der christlichen Tradition wird hier erstmals eine zusammenhängende Darstellung vorgelegt, die sich nicht nur an Fachleute richtet. Mit ihr wird auch deutlich, welche Unterschiede es im Christentum gibt und mit welchen Problemen die Ökumene zu kämpfen hat. Behandelt werden u. a. die äthiopische und eritreische orthodoxe Kirche, die armenische apostolische Kirche, die assyrische Kirche des Ostens sowie die koptische orthodoxe Kirche und die syrische Kirche. Glossar, Bibliographie und Register vervollständigen den Band.

"This volume discusses the origin and structure of the universe in mystical Islam (Sufism) and Islam's civilizational predecessors with special reference to parallel realms of existence and their interaction. Contributors address Sufi ideas about the fate of human beings in this and future life under three rubrics: (1) cosmogony and eschatology ("where do we come from?" and "where do we go?"); (2) conceptualizations of the world of the here-and-now ("where are we now?"); and (3) visualizations of realms of existence, their hierarchy and mutual relationships ("where are we in relation to other times and places?"). Contributors are Christian Lange, Alexander Knysh, Noah Gardiner, Stephen Hirtenstein, Saeko Yazaki, Jean-Jacques Thibon, Leah Kinberg, Sara Sviri, Munjed M. Murad, Simon O'Meara, Pierre Lory, Mathieu Terrier, Michael Ebstein, Binyamin Abrahamov and Frederick Colby"--
