Part 4

[5] In order to fully appreciate the unctuously-fanatical _fetwa_ and proclamation, one has to bear in mind that the real authors of both documents, Enver, Taläat, _et al._, are practically free-thinkers.

[6] It is one of a long series of “Political Pamphlets”--_Politische Flugschriften_--edited by Ernst Jäckh, and which numbers among its contributors Prince von Bülow (again) and other celebrities. Further, Becker published in the collection of _Bonner Vaterländische Reden und Vorträge während des Krieges_ a lecture on “Deutsch-Türkische Interessengemeinschaft” (Community of Interests between Germany and Turkey); in the _Süddeutsche Monatshefte_ an article “England und Egypten,” and in _Das Grössere Deutschland_ an article “England und der Islam.”

[7] The following is a short anthology of titles from M. Hartmann’s writings of most recent years: “Der Islam, 1908,” in _Mitteilungen des Seminars für Orient. Spr. in Berlin_, Jahrg. xii., Abt. ii., 1909; _Die Arabische Frage_, Leipzig, 1909; _Der Islam_, Leipzig, 1909; “Die neuere Literatur zum Türkischen Problem” (Recent Publications on the Turkish Question), in _Zeitschrift für Politik_, 1909; _Unpolitische Briefe aus der Türkei_, Leipzig, 1910 (Non-political Letters from Turkey); _Islam, Mission und Politik_, Leipzig, 1912; _Fünf Vorträge über den Islam_, Leipzig, 1912 (Five Lectures on Islâm); “Das Ultimatum des Panislamismus” (on the holy war against Italy), in _Das Freie Wort_, Jahrg. xi., No. 16; “Mission und Kolonialpolitik,” in _Koloniale Rundschau_, Heft 3, März, 1911.

[8] “Panislamismus,” _Archiv für Religionswissenschaft_, Bd. vii., 1904.

[9] “Der Islam und die Kolonisierung Afrika’s,” in _Internat. Wochenschrift für Wissenschaft, Kunst und Technik_, 19 Febr., 1910.

[10] An attribute well suited indeed to political friendship!
