Manliness: The Pillar of Virtuous Ethic: A Translation and Commentary on Hamza Shehata's Lecture: Ar-Rujulah Imad Al-Khuluq Al-Fadel - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
In 1940, Hamza Shehata gave a lecture at the Makkah Charitable Aid Association which, over four hours and reputedly utilising 121 handwritten notes, covered a staggering amount of social and cultural observances and critique on many facets of contemporary life presented, in equal parts, within a scientific and philosophical framework to convince his audience that conventional views of virtue and vice were a deceptive simplification and social and religious reform was necessary. A humble man at heart, Hamza was reluctant to publish the speech in his lifetime and it is thanks to Malik R. Dahlan's magnificent translation into English, presented here along with an insightful analysis of both the temporal and spatial context of its delivery, that the world is able to fully appreciate a fascinating, and thought provoking, snapshot of Arabian history that would otherwise be lost.

Hardback. Etat : New. In 1940, Saudi Arabian intellectual and activist Hamza Shehata (1910-71) gave a lecture at the Makkah Charitable Aid Association. Over the course of four hours, Shehata shared a staggering number of social and cultural observations and critiques on many facets of contemporary life. Translated into English for the first time, Manliness presents that speech for a new generation of readers. Using a framework that was both scientific and philosophical, Shehata convinced his audience that conventional views of virtue and vice were a deceptive simplification and that social and religious reform was necessary. A humble man at heart, he was reluctant to publish his talk in his lifetime, but thanks to Malik R. Dahlan's expert translation and insightful discussion of the larger historical and geographical context for the speech, readers are now able to appreciate a fascinating snapshot of Arabian history that would otherwise be lost.
