DEWA PECHIL - A MAK YONG TALE TOLD BY ALI BIN IBRAHIM
by Patrick Ann Hardwick & Dara Dayana Mohd Jufry; Kamal Nawie
The Dewa Pechil tale teaches we cannot succeed alone. The loyalty of Cemara Bermas and her followers are needed for Dewa Pechil's revival. Through the effort of this heroic princess and her followers and their wiliness to abandon a corrupt society, Dewa Pechil is restored and the wilderness is no longer wild. The story reflects important Southeast Asian values of loyalty and community support and sociality as essential for a meaningful life. This pro-social tale shows that empathy and altruism counter greed and self-interest. for non-Malay, readers the story will introduce traditional Malay cultural values. For insiders, child or adult, it is a message in narrative form from ancestors about how to be Malay.

Roksolana. Union with the Jagiellonians: a historical novel: book. 1
by Oleksandra Shutko
The novel covers the events in the life of the Ukrainian Roksolana (Hürrem Sultan) - the wife of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, which took place in 1540-1551, when she was at the zenith of glory and power. This woman had a significant influence on the policy of the Ottoman Empire. She mediated the Sultan's man to establish good neighborly relations with the Polish Jagiellonian dynasty, Queen Isabella of Hungary, her mother Bona Sforza, and her brother, King Sigismund II of Poland. The novel is based on Roksolana's love and diplomatic correspondence, archival documents, reports of European ambassadors in Istanbul, Ottoman chroniclers, and information from thorough investigations by Turkish, Polish, Ukrainian, German, Italian, and American historians. In the novel, not only the events and characters are real, but even their dialogues, which history has preserved to this day.

Christian Dualist Heresies in the Byzantine World, c. 650-c. 1450
by Janet Hamilton, Bernard Hamilton
Christian dualism originated in the reign of Constans II (641-68). It was a popular religion, which shared with orthodoxy an acceptance of scriptual authority and apostolic tradition and held a sacramental doctrine of salvation, but understood all these in a radically different way to the Orthodox Church. One of the differences was the strong part demonology played in the belief system. This text traces, through original sources, the origins of dualist Christianity throughout the Byzantine Empire, focusing on the Paulician movement in Armenia and Bogomilism in Bulgaria. It presents not only the theological texts, but puts the movements into their social and political context.

Sieben Derwische
Anatolische Legenden
by Nedim Gürsel, Monika Carbe, Gerhard Schweizer
Nedim Gürsel hat ein schmales Buch über sieben große Figuren des Sufismus geschrieben. Er hat Anatolien durchstreift auf den Spuren von Rûmi (Konya), Haci Bektas (inneres Anatolien), Abdal Musa (Taurusgebirge), Kaygusuz Abdal (Alanya), Merkez Efendi (Manisa), Geyikli Baba und Emir Sultan (Bursa), um von dem legendären Leben der Derwische zu berichten, von den Landschaften und der Geschichte, die ihr Denken beeinflußt haben. Der anatolische Sufismus zeigt das Bild eines toleranten und offenen Islam. »Ich schildere meine Eindrücke«, schreibt Gürsel, »vom Besuch der Kultorte, aber ich erzähle auch, aus meiner Sicht und in meinem Stil, von ihren Legenden und wie diese heiligen Figuren des Islam heute von der Bevölkerung wahrgenommen und verehrt werden.« Sieben Derwische führt in die Welt des anatolischen Sufismus ein, anschaulich, durch Gürsels Berichte von seinen Reisen in Raum und Zeit - gespickt mit Zitaten, Anekdoten, Legenden und Gesprächen vor Ort.
