Description
This historical dictionary of the Sudan focuses on the Sudan in Islamic times from the 14th century to the present. This third edition is revised and expanded. There is more on the sultanates of Sinnar and Dar Fur, the Mahdiya, and the history of Islam in the Sudan, especially the chronology and analysis of significant events of the 1990s, which saw a radical Islamist movement in power in Khartoum. The revised bibliography contains new sections built upon the more recent proliferation of literature on women in the Sudan, minority and human rights, Islamism, opposition movements, and refugees and exiles from the Sudan.
