Synopsis
Modernist Islam was a major intellectual current in the Muslim world during the 19th and 20th centuries. Proponents of this movement typically believed that it was not only possible but imperative to show how “modern” values and institutions could be reconciled with authentically Islamic ideals. This sourcebook brings together a broad range of writings on modernist Islam from across the Muslim world. The writings of many of the activists and intellectuals who made up the early modernist Islamic movement will be made available in English for the first time. Charles Kurzmann and a team of section editors, each specializing in a different region of the Islamic world, have assembled, translated, and annotated the work of the most important of these figures. With the publication of this volume, an English-speaking audience will be able to read more widely in the literature of modernist Islam than even the makers of the movement could., Modernist Islam was a major intellectual current in the Muslim world during the 19th and 20th centuries.
