Immediate, visceral, and full of new analyses that defy decades of conventional wisdom, The First Clash is a superb interpretation of a conflict that indeed made the world safe for Aristotle, Plato, and our own modern democracy. But it was also a battle whose legacy and lessons have often been misunderstood—perhaps, now more than ever, at our own peril.

Story
The final dynasty of pharaonic Egypt was born with the death of one of the most famous men in the ancient world – Alexander the Great – and died with the dramatic suicide of one of antiquity’s most famous women – Cleopatra. The Ptolemies ruled over Egypt for almost three hundred years and ushered in the final period of Egyptian greatness by establishing the most powerful empire in the eastern Mediterranean. But they were Greek, not Egyptian, and attempted to justify their rule by merging Greek and Egyptian culture and embracing pharaonic traditions.

Wie kämpfen Frauen in Nordafrika und im Nahen Osten für ihre Rechte? Was unterscheidet ihren Kampf von dem im Westen? Erfolge und Hindernisse des arabischen Feminismus. Unternehmerinnen, Menschenrechtsanwältinnen, Politikerinnen – viele Menschen im Westen können sich nicht vorstellen, dass es solche Frauen in der arabischen Welt gibt. Denn es passt nicht zum gängigen Stereotyp der "passiven, unterdrückten arabischen Frau". Aber die schablonenhaften Bilder verhindern den Blick auf die Lebensrealität dieser Frauen.
