End of Islam, End of Time : An Eschatological Reading of Yezidism
Original language description
The article summarises and analyses Yezidi texts on the final battle before the End of Time that reflect the community's thorny history of relations with Islam. Drawing heavily on a linguistic analysis of Yezidi texts and terms in Kurmanji Kurdish, the author pursues an intertextual and historical contextual reading that provides plastic explanations for symbols, metaphors, and allusions found in the Yezidi texts on the End of Time. Moreover, an eschatological reading of other Yezidi texts that are notprimarily concerned with the End of Time suggests that eschatological visions may once have been much more prominent in the community's mind-set than is the case at present. The article is likely to be the first of its kind in the field of Yezidism.
