Ya – Arabist
39.99 €
Mikhail Piotrovsky's book is a captivating narrative at the intersection of memoir, history, and cultural studies. Through family stories, archaeological discoveries, encounters with people from different cultures, and reflections on the role of the East in global heritage, Piotrovsky creates a comprehensive picture of the birth and development of the Orientalist worldview. The book is also a reflection on the interconnectedness of cultures, the fragility of historical memory, and the mission of science in a world full of conflicts and divisions.

Eight essay-novellas take the reader on a journey through exotic cities and countries of the Arab world and inspire philosophical parables about historical heroes and the collisions of global and cultural politics. Mikhail Borisovich persistently searches for the key to a problem that fascinates him: how to transform memory wars into dialogues between cultures, how to foster mutual understanding and respect between disparate countries and peoples.
