Die illustrierte, literarisch-wissenschaftliche Kosmographie des persischen Gelehrten Qazwini (1202-1283), ein zentraler Text des islamischen Mittelalters, wird mit kulturhistorischem Blick untersucht und neu bewertet. Im Mittelpunkt stehen zwei Themen, die Tier- und die Engeldarstellungen, anhand derer exemplarisch das Weltbild einer hochentwickelten Kultur aufgezeigt wird, die sich als Zentrum der Welt verstand, ehe sie durch den Mongolensturm des 13. Jahrhunderts aus dem Gleichgewicht geriet. Qazwini prasentiert ein naturkundliches Weltbild in der Tradition der aristotelischen Physik, durchdrungen von einem zwar undogmatischen, aber tiefen islamischen Glauben, verfeinert durch philosophische Ideen und belebt durch wunderbare Erzahlungen und farbige Illustrationen. Auf einmalige Weise verbindet er divergierende Traditionen zu einem uberzeugenden, prachtigen Ganzen. Bislang galt dieses Werk als wesentlicher Beweis fur die Theorie der Dekadenz der arabisch-islamischen Wissenschaft; eine Annahme, die nicht aufrecht erhalten werden kann. Eingeleitet wird diese quellenkritische Untersuchung durch eine ausfuhrliche Schilderung von Qazwinis kulturellem Umkreis. Das Buch bereichert unser Geschichtsbild des 13. Jahrhunderts in einer Schlusselregion, deren Darstellung nach dem Fall Bagdads bislang vernachlassigt wurde.

In Weltgeschichtsschreibung zwischen Schia und Sunna Philip Bockholt examines the manuscript tradition of Khvāndamīr’s Ḥabīb al-siyar, and gives an in-depth analysis of how the author adapted his chronicle to the Shiʿi and Sunni religio-political convictions of his Safavid and Mughal overlords. In Weltgeschichtsschreibung zwischen Schia und Sunna untersucht Philip Bockholt die Handschriftentradition von Ḫvāndamīrs Ḥabīb as-siyar und analysiert die Arbeitsweise des Historikers, seine Weltchronik vor dem Hintergrund der politischen Umwälzungen in Iran und Indien um 1500 an schiitische und sunnitische Kontexte anzupassen.

The contributions in this volume offer the first comprehensive effort to describe and analyse the collection, classification, presentation and methodology of information in the knowledge society of medieval Islam in the disciplines of religious and legal learning, as well as the rational sciences of Hellenistic origin – philosophy, mathematical and medical sciences.The volume begins with a general discussion of the concept of encyclopædia. Successive chapters explore the bases of authority in the institutions of religion and law; biographical literature and handbooks of law; compendia of scientific and philosophical learning based on Iranian and Greek sources; and the more specialised expositions of mathematics and philosophy. The special character of Muslim institutions, their teaching traditions and syllabi is also put into perspective. This is a reference work for the principal genres of ‘enyclopædic’ outlines and manuals – biography, legal handbooks, historiography of knowledge transmission, cosmography, and the philosophical sciences – and a major contribution to the literary and intellectual history.

For the first time the genre of the maqama, the most widespread and popular genre of fictional prose within Arab literature, is presented in its comprehensive history. It was through its stylistic virtuosity as well as its awareness of a situation of social and intellectual crisis that the maqama, portraying the picaresque dramatic performance of a needy literary artist, won global fame. The most celebrated maqamas of Al-Hariri (d.1122) have not only formed part of the Arabic literary canon for many centuries but have inspired even extra-Arabic oriental literatures such as Hebrew and Christian-Syrian and - more lately - modern arabic theatre. (Text in English)Das Werk stellt erstmals die Geschichte einer der originellsten und zugleich meistrezipierten Prosagattungen der arabischen Literatur vor: die Maqame, eine dramatisch-pikareske Selbstinszenierung eines mittellosen Sprachkunstlers, die ihre Einpragsamkeit ihrem gesellschaftskritischen Gehalt nicht weniger als ihrer sprachlichen Virtuositat verdankt. Die Maqamen Hairis (st.1122) gehoren nicht nur seit Jahrhunderten und bis heute zum arabischen literarischen Kanon, sie haben auch die ausser-arabische (hebraische und syrisch-christliche) orientalische Literatur und sogar das moderne arabische Theater inspiriert.

Around 1720 in Fez A?mad b. al-Mub?rak al-Lama??, a religious scholar, wrote down the words and teachings of the Sufi master ?Abd al-?Az?z al-Dabb?gh. Al-Dabb?gh shunned religious studies but, having reached illumination and met with the Prophet Mu?ammad, he was able to explain any obscurities in the Qur??n, ?ad?ths and sayings of earlier Sufis. The resulting book, known as the Ibr?z, describes how al-Dabb?gh attained illumination and access to the Prophet, as well as his teachings about the Council of the godly that regulates the world, relations between master and disciple, the darkness in men’s bodies, Adam’s creation, Barzakh, Paradise and Hell, and much more besides. This ‘encyclopaedia’ of Sufism with its many teaching stories and illustrations provides a window onto social life and religious ideas in Fez a generation or so before powerful outside forces began to play a role in the radical transformation of Morocco.

Der kurze Traktat al-Maqāṣid al-saniyyah li-maʿrifat al-aǧsām al-maʿdiniyyah des berühmten ägyptischen Geschichtsschreibers al-Maqrīzī (gest. 845/1442) befasst sich mit der Klassifikation der Mineralien, ihren medizinischen Anwendungen sowie Theorien über ihre Entstehung. Käs legt hier erstmals eine kritische Textedition mit deutscher Übersetzung und ausführlichem Kommentar vor. Grundlage der Edition des arabischen Texts war in der Hauptsache ein Leidener Codex, der von al-Maqrīzī eigenhändig korrigiert und mit Glossen erweitert wurde. Ein Faksimile der Handschrift wird in diesem Band ebenfalls abgedruckt. Käs konnte nachweisen, dass der Traktat fast vollständig von den Enzyklopädien Ibn Faḍlallāh al-ʿUmarīs und al-Qazwīnīs abhängig ist. Die Inhalte der Mineralienkapitel dieser Werke lassen sich ihrerseits bis zu den frühen arabischen Naturphilosophen und ihren griechischen Vorläufern zurückverfolgen. The short treatise entitled al-Maqāṣid al-saniyyah li-maʿrifat al-aǧsām al-maʿdiniyyah by the famous Egyptian historiographer al-Maqrīzī (d. 845/1442) deals with the classification of minerals, their medicinal uses and theories of their coming into being. Käs presents for the first time a critical edition of this text along with a German translation and a detailed commentary. The edition of the Arabic text is mainly based on the Leiden codex corrected and enlarged by al-Maqrīzī himself. A facsimile of this manuscript is also provided in this volume. Käs was able to prove that the treatise depends almost exclusively on the encyclopedias by Ibn Faḍlallāh al-ʿUmarī and al-Qazwīnī. The contents of their chapters on minerals can in turn be traced back to the early Arabic natural philosophers and their Greek precursors.
