This book resurrects that largely forgotten aspect of the war, investigating the background and nature of the proclamation, as well as its effects in the wider Middle East, the fears it stoked among German and British military leaders, and the accompanying academic debates about holy war and Islam Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on 10/27/2020) SUBJECT BMBF-Statusseminar gnd Subject World War, 1914-1918 -- Turkey -- Congresses Jihad -- Congresses Propaganda, German -- Middle East -- 20th century -- Congresses World War, 1914-1918 -- Propaganda -- Congresses First World War.
