The life of Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi in British Orientalism - Hamilton Jeb

صلاح الدين is one of the most famous Eastern figures known by Europe through the long history of the relationship between East and West. And Arab generations recall him in the liberation of Jerusalem. But, in the midst of that rich heritage, the treatments of the British orientalist "Sir Hamilton Gibb" come unique. So, in Gibb's handling of sources of صلاح الدين, his biography, and his personality, we see brilliance in European Orientalism in the exceptional approach to understanding صلاح الدين's character, and depth in analyzing Arabic sources. And the patterns of intertwined relationships between their texts, and this book is a model of all that. The book "The Life of صلاح الدين الأيوبي in British Orientalism" by author Hamilton Gibb, translated by Nasser Abdul Razzaq Al-Mulla Jassim.
