Having enjoyed a short-lived independence as intermezzo between 1918 and 1920, Azerbaijan was a part of Russian Empire and then one of the 15 Soviet Socialist Republics for almost two centuries. While its history, political and economic culture of 19th and particularly of 20th century are intertwined with that of Russia, Azerbaijan shares common religious, language, literary and folk traditions with Turkey, neighboring Georgia and Armenia and particularly with Iran. It has a predominantly Shiite Muslim population and it’s been independent since 1991.  This new edition of Historical Dictionary of Azerbaijan contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 500 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Azerbaijan.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49733330829585,"sku":"NGR9781538110416","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52349857628433,"sku":"NLS9781538110416","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1538110415.jpg?v=1750798237"},{"product_id":"oswald-spengler-als-europaisches-phanomen-book-zaur-gasimov-9783525101261","title":"Oswald Spengler ALS Europaisches Phanomen","description":"English summary: There was hardly another German author from the first half of the 20th century who was quoted, reviewed and criticized so often in the time immediately after World War I as the philosopher of culture and history Oswald Spengler (1880-1936). The contributions in this volume represent the first systematic look at the phenomenon of the many ways in which Spengler's philosophy was \"transferred\" in Europe between the two world wars. They investigate the deep impact of the various levels of his literary reception in Western, Eastern and Southern Europe.German description: Kaum ein anderer deutscher Denker der ersten Halfte des 20. Jahrhunderts ist in der unmittelbaren Nachkriegszeit ab 1918\/1919 so intensiv zitiert, besprochen und kritisiert worden wie der Kultur- und Geschichtsphilosoph Oswald Spengler (1880-1936). Die in diesem Band zusammengefuhrten Beitrage bieten erstmals einen systematischen Zugang zum Phanomen der zahlreichen und vielschichtigen Transfers der Kultur- und Geschichtsphilosophie Spenglers im Europa der Zwischenkriegszeit und behandeln die Rezeptionswege ausgewahlter Lander West-, Ost- und Sudosteuropas. Die Tiefenwirkung der unterschiedlichen Spengler-Rezeptionen loste bereits in seiner Fruhphase einen transnationalen Europa-Diskurs kultureller Selbstbehauptung aus, der bis weit in die zweite Halfte des 20. Jahrhunderts hinuberstrahlen sollte. Oswald Spengler als europaisches Phanomen erweist sich dabei als uberaus geeignetes Fallbeispiel zur Uberprufung und Weiterentwicklung neuerer Ansatze der Kulturtransferforschung.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52153889095953,"sku":"NGR9783525101261","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783525101261.jpg?v=1757622759"},{"product_id":"historical-dictionary-of-azerbaijan-book-zaur-gasimov-9798216197133","title":"Historical Dictionary of Azerbaijan","description":"Azerbaijanis speak a Turkic language close to the Turkish of Turkey and live in a vast historical landscape between Russia’s Dagestan, eastern Georgia, and Iran’s capital, Tehran.   The nation declared independence in 1918, but Russia reoccupied the country by force in 1920. In 1991, Azerbaijan regained its independence for the second time. The oil-rich republic of ten million people is located at a geopolitically important crossroads between Russia and Iran. Predominantly Shiite Muslim and highly secular, Azerbaijan is Turkey and Israel’s closest ally in the region. A post-Soviet country the size of Austria on the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan faces numerous socio-political problems rooted mainly in its communist past (1920–1991). Azerbaijan’s economy has been based on oil and gas exports for three decades, providing alternative fossil-fuel supplies for Europe. At the same time, the non-oil sector remains relatively underdeveloped.   Historical Dictionary of Azerbaijan, Third Edition contains a chronology, an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and cross-referenced entries on important personalities as well as aspects of the country’s politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Azerbaijan.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53639317881105,"sku":"NLS9798216197133","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9798216197133.jpg?v=1781011243"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/fr-fr\/collections\/auteur-livres-de-zaur-gasimov.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
