De oude stad Djenné in Mali – bekend vanwege haar fascinerende architectuur – is al eeuwenlang een van de belangrijkste centra van islamitische cultuur in West-Afrika. Nog steeds woont er een groot aantal marabouts: Koranleraren en religieuze specialisten. Geert Mommersteeg verrichtte antropologisch veldwerk in Djenné en sprak met marabouts over hun denken en handelen. Geleidelijk aan verkreeg hij toegang tot hun wereld en inzicht in de twee vormen van kennis waarin zij gespecialiseerd zijn: openbare kennis en geheime kennis. In de stad van de marabouts werd genomineerd voor de Eureka! Non-fictieprijs (1999-2000) en de Prix des Ambassadeurs (shortlist 1999) en werd in het Frans vertaald (Éditions Grandvaux 2009). Deze herziene en uitgebreide uitgave bevat o.a. een nieuw hoofdstuk (‘Djenné anno 2007’) en wordt met foto’s geïllustreerd. In de stad van de marabouts verschijnt in de reeks Antropologie Academie. Cultureel antropologisch onderzoek geeft inzicht in boeiende en indringende menselijke thema’s. Het kan bij uitstek antwoorden op vragen over cultuur en culturele dynamiek, zowel in samenlevingen elders als in de Nederlandse multiculturele samenleving. De reeks Antropologie Academie wil voor een breed publiek de resultaten van antropologisch veldwerk en andere door antropologen gebruikte onderzoeksmethoden belichten. Daarbij wordt een scala aan onderwerpen uit het ruime studieveld van de culturele antropologie belicht. De boeken uit de Antropologie Academie hebben een inleidend karakter, zijn toegankelijk geschreven en geschikt voor studenten op BA- en MA-niveau, maar ook voor anderen, zoals reizigers en docenten, die zich afvragen hoe mensen met een verschillende culturele achtergrond in de wereld staan. De reeks Antropologie Academie wordt uitgegeven in samenwerking met de Antropologen Beroepsvereniging (Abv) In De Stad Van De Marabouts Druk Heruitgave

From the opening pages, amidst the throes of Ramadan during the hottest and driest season in Mali, Dutch ethnographer Geert Mommersteeg welcomes readers into the religious culture of a historic city uniquely filled with Islamic scholars known as marabouts. This finely crafted English-language translation provides a remarkable contribution to the study of Islamic practices and beliefs observed in local contexts in sub-Saharan Africa, with a focus on the interrelationship between public and secret knowledge of maraboutage in everyday reality. This inviting personal narrative of an anthropologist's long-term fieldwork in Djennfor centuries a center of West African culture, scholarship, and architectureis full of valuable methodological insights. Mommersteeg, with unassuming honesty, becomes absorbed in the knowledge of the Holy Word and slowly enters the closed world of religious practice in which marabouts serve as intermediaries between God and their clients. While marabouts do not claim to be all-knowing, they do know how God can be addressed most effectively, which amulets are the most powerful, and which alms are best for nudging the future in the right direction.

Writing boards and blackboards are emblematic of two radically different styles of education in Islam. The essays in this lively volume address various aspects of the expanding and evolving range of educational choices available to Muslims in sub-Saharan Africa. Contributors from the United States, Europe, and Africa evaluate classical Islamic education in Africa from colonial times to the present, including changes in pedagogical methods--from sitting to standing, from individual to collective learning, from recitation to analysis. Also discussed are the differences between British, French, Belgian, and Portuguese education in Africa and between mission schools and Qur'anic schools; changes to the classical Islamic curriculum; the changing intent of Islamic education; the modernization of pedagogical styles and tools; hybrid forms of religious and secular education; the inclusion of women in Qur'anic schools; and the changing notion of what it means to be an educated person in Africa. A new view of the role of Islamic education, especially its politics and controversies in today's age of terrorism, emerges from this broadly comparative volume.

In humanitys struggle to find timely solutions to environmental problems, it is easily forgotten that access to our shared spaces has never been equal. This collection deals with the landscapes and places of rural, urban, and wilderness areas in relation development. Contributions examine the complex relationship that human beings maintain with their rural and urban environments and with other species in various places and spaces. Nothing is taken for granted: colonial history, globalization, localization, hybrid relationships, colonial or "shared"architecture, religious backgrounds, and claims to equal access all fuse with policy strategies. This volume discusses these issues within the framework of developmental discourse, while asserting the rights of access to the global commons for all world citizens as well as other species.

The Anthropology of Learning in Childhood offers a portrait of childhood across time, culture, species, and environment. Anthropological research on learning in childhood has been scarce, but this book will change that. It demonstrates that anthropologists studying childhood can offer a description and theoretically sophisticated account of children's learning and its role in their development, socialization, and enculturation. Further, it shows the particular contribution that children's learning makes to the construction of society and culture as well as the role that culture-acquiring children play in human evolution.

Alexander's Alleged Wall Against Gog and Magog, often connected with the enclosure of the apocalyptic people, was a widespread theme among Syriac Christians in Mesopotamia. In the ninth century Sallam the Interpreter dictated an account of his search for the barrier to the Arab geographer Ibn Khurradadhbih. The reliability of Sallam's journey from Samarra to Western China and back (842-45), however, has always been a highly contested issue. Van Donzel and Schmidt consider the travel account as historical. This volume presents a translation of the source while at the same time it carefully looks into other Eastern Christian and Muslim traditions of the famous lore. A comprehensive survey reconstructs the political and topographical data. As so many other examples, this story pays witness to the influence of the Syriac Christian tradition on Koran and Muslim Traditions.
