Islam

The book "Islam" contains essays by the outstanding Russian Orientalist, Academician Vasily Vladimirovich Bartold, dedicated to Islam and Muslim culture. This work was first published in 1918–1922, where the author, in a form accessible to the general reader and at a high scholarly level, described the history and place of Muslim culture in the history of mankind. V.V. Bartold's works on Islamic studies are distinguished by tolerance and the absence of Eurocentric-Christian stereotypes.
