Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. In Seven Pillars of Wisdom we have a timely book, and one that will remain timely into the foreseeable future. In Lawrence we have an impeccable witness; not a diplomat, not a politician, not a lobbyist, but a scholar and a soldier who embodied that vestige of chivalry that has now all but vanished. He records what he saw and what he undertook, living among those warriors whom he led in a manner seldom experienced by any other officer. Hence, Lawrence had empathy for the Arabs that will hopefully be of keen interest to the present generations who are fed a daily diet of Islamophobia and Arabophobia, literally 'anti-Semitism', since it is the Arabs who are the sons of Shem. The picture given by Lawrence is of a people very different from today's media and Hollywood stereotypes that are part of a propaganda offensive to justify a genocidal war against a people and a faith which could not only have co-existed with, but which could have remained as firm friends, with the West on the basis of the friendship that had been cultivated by Lawrence. As Seven Pillars shows, the 'West' and the Arabs and all of Islam are now embroiled in a conflict that has it's roots in the diplomatic duplicity during World War I, which has brought chaos to a large expanse of the world, and which shows no signs of abating in the lifetime of any reader of this book. Lawrence here sets the dramatic background against which this tragedy is being played out.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seven Pillars of Wisdom is T. E. Lawrence's autobiographical account of the Arab Revolt during the First World War, first published in a private edition in 1926 and later revised for public release. Combining military history, political analysis, and personal reflection, the book records Lawrence's role as a British liaison officer in the Middle East and his close involvement with Arab leaders resisting Ottoman rule. Written with unusual literary ambition, it moves beyond conventional memoir to examine loyalty, power, cultural misunderstanding, and the moral strain of irregular warfare.Neither a simple war narrative nor a work of propaganda, Seven Pillars of Wisdom is marked by introspection and restraint, shaped as much by doubt and self-scrutiny as by action. This Rediscovered Books edition presents the complete text in a newly typeset format, restoring a work that stands at the intersection of modern history, travel writing, and autobiographical literature. The book remains a central document of twentieth-century historical writing, valued for both its firsthand testimony and its reflective seriousness.…
