This book collects nearly 250 translated extracts from an extensive array of ancient sources, which, from a variety of different perspectives, illuminate the history of the Arabs before the emergence of Islam. These sources are drawn from a broad period from the eighth century BC to the Middle Ages, and include texts written in Greek, Latin, Syriac, Persian, and Arabic, inscriptions in a variety of languages and alphabets, and discussions of archaeological sites from across the Near East. More than 20 experts, drawn from the fields of archaeology, classics and ancient history, linguistics and philology, epigraphy, and art history, provide detailed commentary and analysis on this diverse selection of material. The book provides a comprehensive examination of what ancient sources had to say about the politics, culture, and religion of the Arabs in the pre-Islamic period. It offers a full consideration of the traces which the Arabs have left in the epigraphic, literary, and archaeological records, and sheds light on their relationship with their often more powerful neighbours—the states and empires of the ancient Near East.

Ayad Al-Ani beschreibt die Entstehung des westlichen Bildes über die Araber zu einer Zeit, als diese Teil der hellenistisch-römischen Welt waren, beginnend mit den Eroberungen Alexanders des Großen bis zum Sieg der Araber über Rom 636. Al-Ani zeichnet nach, wie stark und mannigfaltig die Araber in der hellenistisch-römischen Welt vertreten waren und wie sie gleichermaßen konsequent in der westlichen Darstellung als Außenseiter ihrer eigenen Geschichte dekonstruiert wurden. Dies ist bemerkenswert, weil gerade die hohe Anzahl arabischer Senatoren, arabischer und halbarabischer Cäsaren (Elagabal, Alexander Severus, Caracalla, Philippus Arabs) durchaus einen beachtlichen Einfluss auf die römische Lebensart, Religion und Politik hatten. Diese westliche Negativschablone wurde auch nicht dadurch gemildert, dass eine große Zahl der Araber der römischen Provinzen ab dem vierten Jahrhundert Christen waren. Im Gegenteil: Durch den späteren Verlust des christlichen Kernlandes im Zuge der arabischen Eroberung des römischen Ostens, dem Oriens, entstand ein Trauma, welches Eingang in den aktuellen "Kampf der Kulturen" findet.
