About This Item

Frankfurt, Germany: Ullstein Sachbuch, 1989. A6 - A German language text trade paperback book in good+ condition. A tight, clean, sound copy with minor overall shelf wear with some light creasing, soiling and rubbing of the covers plus light yellowing of the paper plus there is a light crease on the spine plus there are some dog-eared pages. Allah ist mit den Standhaften: Begegnungen mit der islamischen Revolution, Mit 6 Karten. Nach seinem Indochina-Buch berichtet Peter Scholl-Latour von seinen Erfahrungen mit einer Bewegung, deren derzeit beispiellose Dynamik unsere Welt verändert: der islamischen Revolution. Wiederum dringt der Autor in spannungsgeladenen Erlebnisschilderungen - von den Philippinen bis nach Marokko - zu den Hintergründen vor, die der Westen kennen muß, um die Herausforderung durch den Islam zu bestehen. Das Buch beginnt mit einem Abenteuer bei den Moslems der Philippinen und endet - in der Zusammenfassung - mit den Türken in der Bundesrepublik. Die Sprache, die alle Bekenner des Islam verbindet, hat Peter Scholl-Latour in jenem Dorf gelernt, aus dem der neue libanesische Staatspräsident Amin Gemayel stammt, den er seitdem kennt. Das Arabische öffnete Scholl-Latour Zugänge, die anderen verschlossen blieben. So gelang es ihm, die Wegmarken der islamischen Revolution jeweils zum richtigen Zeitpunkt zu entdecken. Peter Scholl-Latour war dabei, als - beispielhaft für viele andere islamische Völker - die Algerier ihre Unabhängigkeit erkämpften. Er hat Khomeini auf seinem inzwischen historischen Flug von Paris nach Teheran begeitet und den islamischen Umsturz im Zentrum dieses politischen Erdbebens erlebt. Er kennt die Mohammedaner Afrikas, Chinas und des Fernen Ostens; er ritt mit den Aufständischen in die afghanische Bergwelt; er prüfte die Lelung im Nahen Osten ist er ein Augenzeuge ersten Ranges, denn er hat sich hier wie dort ein eigenes Bild verschafft: im Libanon wie in Israel, in Syrien wie im Irak. Dieses Buch ist ein fesselnd geschriebener Bericht und zugleich ein Standardwerk über den Aufbruch einer Bewegung, die uns noch lange in Atem halten wird; ein Erlebnis für alle Leser. Dr. phil. Peter Scholl-Latour, geboren 1924 in Bochum, studierte an den Universitäten Mainz, Paris und Beirut (dort Arabistik). Seit 1950 ist er Journalist. Von 1960 bis 1963 war er Afrika-Korrespondent der ARD, von 1963 bis 1969 leitete er das Pariser Studio der ARD, von 1969 bis 1971 war er Programmdirektor des WDR-Fernsehens, 1975 bis 1983 war er Leiter des Pariser ZDF-Studios; seit 1983 ist Scholl-Latour Vorstandsmitglied der Gruner + Jahr AG, seit 1984 darüber hinaus Beiratsmitglied der UFA-Film und Fernseh-GmbH, Hamburg. Veröffentlichungen: Fernseh-, Funk- und Zeitungsberichte und mehrere Bücher, darunter 'Der Tod im Reisfeld', Stuttgart 1980, das erfolgreichste politische Sachbuch seit 1945, und 'Mord am groß Fluß', Stuttgart 1986. Neueste Veröffentlichungen: 'Leben mit Frankreich' (1988), 'Der Ritt auf dem Dranchen. Indochina - von der französischen Kolonialzeit bis heute' (1988). Allah is with the Steadfast: Encounters with the Islamic Revolution, with 6 maps. A book by Peter Scholl-Latour about his experiences with a dynamic movement that is changing our world: the Islamic Revolution. The author describes his tension-filled experiences in settings as diverse as Philippines to Morocco as well as the social and historical backgrounds with an eye to what the West needs to know in order to confront the challenge of Islam. The book begins with an adventure among the Muslims of the Philippines and ends among the Turks in West Germany. The language that unites all believers in Islam, Peter Scholl-Latour has learned in that village, from the Lebanese President Amin Gemayel is that he knows ever since. Some Arabs gave Scholl-Latour open access and others remained closed to him but he succeeded in discovering halmarks of the Islamic Revolution in each and every situation. Peter Scholl-Latour was there when - typical of many other Islamic nations - the Algerians won their independence. He accompanied Khomeini on his now historic flight from Paris to Tehran and witnessed the Islamic revolution in the center of Iran's political earthquake. He knows the Moslems in Africa, China and the Far East and he rode with the rebels in the Afghan mountains, in the Middle East he has been an eyewitness of the first rank. He extended his experiences and insights there to include Lebanon as well as Israel, Syria and Iraq. This book is a compelling written report and has become a important work on the emergence of a movement will continue to keep the world in suspense as well as being an enlightening experience for all readers. Peter Scholl-Latour was born in 1924 in Bochum, has earned a master's degree at the Institut d’études politiques de Paris and his doctorate at the Sorbonne as well as another master's in Arab and Islamic studies at the Lebanese University of Beirut. Starting in 1950 he began working as a journalist.
