European perceptions of Islam and America from Saladin to George W. BushEurope's fragile ego uncovered /[electronic resource] :Peter O'Brien. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - x, 230 p. ;22 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [205]-217) and index.

Eurocentrism -- Introduction -- The quest for subjective eurocentrism -- Rival to the East --The discovery of Islamic superiority (1095-1453) -- Lingering Asian superiority (1453-1776) -- Rival to the West -- The real American Revolution (1776-1820) -- America ascendant (1820-1914) -- World America (1918-present).

The study unearths in European writings about chief rivals -- Islamic civilization between the first Crusade in 1095 and the final Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1683, and the United States of America from independence in 1776 until the present persistent solicitude regarding Europe'scapacity to lead the world. Intriguingly, however, this very self-doubt prompted the kind of intense introspection which helped, in the past,to forge seismic progressive reform movements such as the Renaissance,Reformation and Scientific Revolution that ultimately propelled Europepast a more inward-looking Islam and which, today, may very well be positioning a rapidly transforming Europe Union to counter the hegemony of a seemingly smug America. The study concludes that frail, if not low self-esteem has played a significant role in the formation of European identity.
