Middle Eastern Studies by Bernard Lewis

Three by Bernard Lewis Bernard Lewis is Professor Emeritus of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University and is widely recognized as one of the leading analysts ot the interaction between Islamic and Western cultures.
	Islam and the West "Islam and the West" is a collection of essays on the relationship between the West and Islam since the Medieval era, the point at which the West first became dominant, and the continuing response from the Islamic world.
	The Political Language of Islam Islam is trans-national but claims Arabic as its common language. In "The Political Language of Islam," Lewis considers how Arabic has shaped Muslim thought and the differences in how Western and Muslim thinkers construct reality because of deep differences in how they understand supposedly simple philisophical and political ideas,
	What Went Wrong? Western Impact and Middle Eastern Response Islam was one of the most important agents of civilization in the post-Roman world, but during the late Middle Ages, Western civilization began to grow and flourish while Islamic civilization went into decline and retreat. In this book Lewis discusses why the change occurred and how it has affected relations between the West and Islam to this day.
