Syracuse University Press Publishes Akram Khater's Embracing the Divine: Passion & Politics in the Christian Middle East

It opens a window onto the exciting world of religious belief and practice in the eighteenth century, turning our attention to Christian experiences in the Levant that challenge the notion of Christianity as Western."
