Bildliche Szenen aus Indien sind in deutschen, englischen und amerikanischen Missionsjournalen sowie erweckter und evangelikaler Literatur aus dem 19. Jahrhundert zu sehen. Diese Darstellungen erzählen meist mehr über die westlichen Rezipienten als über das dargestellte Land. Das vorliegende Buch analysiert Holzschnitte im Evangelischen Heidenboten und der Halbbatzenkollekte, die beide von der Basler Mission herausgegeben wurden. Zwischen 1846 und 1870 waren diese Grafiken durch eine emblematische bzw. sinnbildliche Leseweise geprägt. Textliche und bildliche Strategien halfen dem europäischen Leser dabei, eine Brücke zu den imaginierten Menschen aus den Missionsgebieten zu schlagen. Der westliche Leser wurde durch Darstellungen von christlichen und nichtchristlichen Indern zu einem frommen Lebensstil ermahnt. Diese Bilder wurden im Rahmen europäischer Darstellungstraditionen von westlichen Grafikern konzipiert. Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt die Bedeutung biblischer Geschichten und christlicher Ikonografie für die Darstellung Indiens im 19. Jahrhundert.

"In this comprehensive study, Aaron Spevack delves into the 15th-century logic text by Shams al-Din al-Fanari (d. 1431), a foundational work in the Ottoman seminary tradition. Rather than offering a standard annotated translation alone, Spevack also provides an in-depth analysis of each chapter, enriched with references to multiple super-commentaries and practical examples. Drawing from years of study under scholars trained in the Ottoman tradition along with personal research, he highlights the text's significance in the Islamic logic tradition and its philosophical depth. More than just a guide to logical reasoning, al-Fanari's work embeds a number of philosophical and metaphysical inquiries that set the Islamic intellectual tradition apart from its modern counterparts. This work offers both a practical and philosophical framework, showing why a deep understanding of classical logic is vital for contemporary discourse"--
