Bücher von Mark Woodward

This clearly written text explores the rational theology of Islam, the conflict between the "e;defenders of God"e; and the "e;defenders of reason"e;, and the controversy's historical roots.

Written on the basis of Woodward's thirty years of research on Javanese Islam in a Yogyakarta (south-central Java) setting, Java, Indonesia and Islam presents a collection of essays concerning Javanese Islamic texts, ritual, and sacred space, situated in Javanese and Indonesian political contexts.
