Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. 56 pp. Light wear. Cover art by Marion E. Barker. Started in 1920, this magazine was founded by the Hudson's Bay Company as part of their 250th anniversary celebrations. HBC was chartered on the 2nd of May in the year 1670. Their main business was furs, primarily beaver pelts, hence the name of the magazine, The Beaver. In 1994, the magazine was acquired by Canada's National History Society. In 2010, the History Society changed the name from The Beaver to Canada's History because, apparently, an assortment of half-wits thought the original title of the magazine was disgustingly sexist. This issue contains: Colours of the Farm by Donald Lamont, illustrated by Marion E. Barker; Fuel for the Home Fires by Desmond Morton and Cheryl Smith; Louis Slotin and the Invisible Killer by Martin Zeilig; Tyrant of the Ottawa Valley - planting the Clan McNab in colonial Canada by Bernard Shaw; North with the Red River Brigade by William Cornwallis King; A Surgeon on the Bay by W. B. Ewart; and Tourists of Old Montreal by Clarence Epstein; along with an assortment of features. Size: 4to. Marion E. Barker; (ilustrador). Book.…

Paperback. Condición: New. In this important book, Clarence-Smith provides the first general survey of the Islamic debate on slavery. Sweeping away entrenched myths, he hopes to stimulate more research on the neglected topic. He draws on examples from the 'abode of Islam', from the Philippines to Senegal and from the Caucasus to South Africa, paying particular attention for the period from the late eighteenth century to the present.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Contemporay debates about Muslim slavery occur in a context of fierce polemics between Islam and other belief systems. While Islamic groups had an ambivalent and generally muted impact on the legal repudiation of slavery, a growing religious commitment to abolition was essential if legislation was to be enforced in the twentieth century. Drawing on examples from the whole 'abode' of Islam, from the Philipines to Senegal and from the Caucasus to South Africa, Gervase Clarence-Smith ranges across the history of Islam, paying particular attention to the period from the late 18th century to the present. He shows that "sharia-minded" attempts to achieve closer adherence to the holy law restricted slavery, even if they did not end it. However, the sharia itself was not as clear about the legality of servitude as is usually assumed, and progressive scholars within the schools of law might even have achieved full emancipation over the long term. The impact of mystical and millenarian Islam was contradictory, in some cases providing a supportive agenda of freedom, but in other cases causing great surges of enslavement. The revisionist Islam that emerged from the 18th century was divided. "Fundamentalists" stressed the literal truth of the founding texts of Islam, and thus found it difficult to abandon slavery completely. "Modernists, ' appealing to the spirit rather than to the letter of scripture, spawned the most radical opponents of slavery, notably Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan, the Islamic William Wilberforce.

In this important new book, Clarence-Smith provides the first general survey of the Islamic debate on slavery.
