From Beirut to Jerusalem (Abridged) (Compact Disc)
Description Before he figured out that THE WORLD IS FLAT, Thomas Friedman had to endure a few bumps as a New York Times correspondent in Beirut and Jerusalem. For his 10 years of distinguished reporting, Friedman was awarded two Pulitzer Prizes, and a National Book Award for FROM BEIRUT TO JERUSALEM, which remains at or near the top of the list of definitive books about the Middle East. When he was first appointed to Beirut in 1979, Friedman was as innocent (or ignorant) as most people when it came...

This documentary was the grand prize winner at the 1988 U.S. Film Festival. Three adult sisters from the elite upper-class of Beirut society pay lip-service to social change and talk about themselves from the luxurious comfort of their family's 200-year-old castle. The biggest problem faced by the Bustros family is that the chandeliers occasionally vibrate from the distant explosion of bombs and artillery. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

June 02, 2003: The fact is Friedman uses his experience of local peoples and places to put some of the most important events in the development of the fault we call the Israeli-Palestinian conflict into a greater historical/geographical context. It can be, if selectively read termed pro-Israeli or anti-Israeli (none daring the term pro-Palestinian). The reality is that the book condemns the slaughters of Sabra and the terrorism of Arafat. Beyond the insighful analysis of the political...

Condon is maturing as a songwriter, too: Flying Club sees him get more curious about his chosen hybrid and more aware of its pitfalls. He's less inclined to fall back on it (see fears above), more to let it romance pop. "St. Apollonia" leads with a tart ukulele and flugelhorn pairing, setting up a consciously Old World anthem that will eventually include everything from bouzouki to steel drums. But it's patient with these. Unrushed and balanced, the song doesn't try to do more than cast a spell ...

The Lebanese capital stands for Arab cosmopolitanism and cultural effervescence but also for its tragedies of destruction. This book examines the historical formation of Beirut as a multiply contested Mediterranean city. Fin de Siecle Beirut is a landmark contribution to the growing literature in Ottoman studies, in Arab cultural history and on Mediterranean cities...

From Beirut to Jerusalem; Revised Edition
The trip that would change my life. I was only fifteen years old at the time and just waking up to the world. The flight to Jerusalem marked the first time I had traveled beyond the border of Wisconsin and the first time I had ridden on an airplane. I don't know if it was just the shock of the new, or a fascination waiting to be discovered, but something about Israel and the Middle East grabbed me in both heart and mind. I was totally taken with the place, its peoples and its conflicts. Since...

Fin de Siecle Beirut is a landmark contribution to the growing literature in Ottoman studies, in Arab cultural history and on Mediterranean cities. Combining urban theory, particularly Henri Lefebvre's work on cities and capitalism, with postcolonial methodology, the central thesis of this book is that modern Beirut is the outcome of persistent social and intellectual struggles over the production of space. The city of Beirut was at once the product, the object, and the project of imperial and urban...
