This review takes the form of a podcast, and should respect the conventions of the form: Who you are, what you\u2019re discussing, etc. (\u201cI\u2019m your host X and this is Greatest Hits of Islamic Studies.<\/i> Today\u2019s episode focuses on Fazlur Rahman and his 1980 classic Major Themes of the Qur\u2019an \u2026<\/i>\u201d) It should include \u201cshow notes\u201d that give a summary of the episode (this can be 1-3 sentences, up to a paragraph\u2014no need to be as elaborate as the New Books Network\u2014Islamic Studies examples ), references for anything you mention (hyperlink is fine), and if you wish, optional links to or references for additional material. Keeping it 101<\/i> is a good model here, though yours do not need to be that extensive. <\/span><\/p>\n Your audio should be about 8-10 minutes (that\u2019s a written script of 3-4 double spaced pages), but respecting the looser, digressive form of the podcast, you can go for up to 15. If you wish, you can include audio snippets from other places \u2013 e.g., if you find a recording of Rahman talking, or another scholar talking about him (if you do this, link to the source!). But it should mostly be you, talking about the book. <\/p>\n The podcast needn\u2019t be argued like a paper. As you\u2019ll recall from our in-class review of podcasts, the format is looser, and you can play with the form so long as there\u2019s a reason you\u2019re approaching it the way you are. The indispensable elements are: a quick account of who the author is, a basic summary of the book, and some indication of why it\u2019s important\u2014you wouldn\u2019t be talking about a nearly fifty year old book if you didn\u2019t think some part of it mattered. The rest of the content is up to you \u2013 pick an angle in keeping with your invented podcast (Precursors to Contemporary Muslim Feminism<\/i>? Influential South Asian Thinkers of the 20<\/i>th<\/sup><\/i><\/span> Century<\/i>? Piety and Progress<\/i>?) and play around with it.<\/p>\n You can do the podcast in three ways: <\/span><\/p>\n
