The Traditional World of Islam: 2: Nomad and City

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

A series of six films made as part of the World of Islam Festival.

The nomad and the city are the two poles of Islamic civilisation, and the tension between them has always been a feature of its life. The nomads bring fresh and un-spoilt energies, and the capacity for renewal. The cities provide stability and continuity, and are the home of learning and the arts and crafts.
