Abstract

The historiography of the Early Mamluk Circassian period is prolific but has not yet received proper scholarly attention. For the first time, this study examines in a comprehensive manner the key sources for the reign of al-Zāhir Barqūq (784-91, 792-801/1382-9, 1390-9) in terms of their originality and importance. By means of a systematic analysis of the annals of three different years, it provides a critical evaluation of published and manuscript primary sources, identifies the nature of the interdependence amongst authors, and sheds new light on the craft of historical writing. This book fills a critical gap in the scholarship on Mamluk historiography. The author not only assesses the production of well-known historians (Ibn Khaldūn, Ibn al-Furāt, al-Maqrīzī, Ibn Taghrībirdī, et cetera), but also studies pivotal authors (Ibn Duqmâq, Ibn Hijjī, et cetera) whose works has been up until now either ignored or unknown.

Abstract

A text-critical edition of the third speech against the Arians (in Greek) within the Berlin edition of Athanasius Werke. The edition presents the third speech against the Arians, which the Alexandrian bishop Athanaius composed probably between 342-345 CE. The new critical edition of this writing, which because of its dogmatic statements on Christology was often later cited in secondary sources, takes the place of Bernard de Montfaucon's edition of 1698 and the various reprints of it. Textkritische Edition der Dritten Rede gegen die Arianer (griechisch) im Rahmen der Berliner Ausgabe Athanasius Werke . Der alexandrinische Bischof Athanasius verfaßte wahrscheinlich zwischen 342 und 345 seine Dritte Rede gegen die Arianer. Die neue kritische Ausgabe dieser Schrift, die vor allem wegen ihrer dogmatischen Aussagen zur Christologie in der Folgezeit von sekundären Quellen oft zitiert wurde, ersetzt Bernard de Montfaucons Edition von 1698 und deren verschiedene Nachdrucke.

Abstract

Francis Breyer's Punt. Die Suche nach dem ›Gottesland‹ covers every aspect concerning Punt, this land known only from ancient Egyptian sources. Several disciplines have contributed to the discussion on its localization: Egyptology, Nubien Studies, Botany, Zoology, Anthropology, and African Studies, among others. The various disciplines' arguments are carefully studied, especially with the history of research and the Zeitgeist in mind. For the very first time, the question is asked, which archaeological culture from the horn of Africa can be correlated to the data from the textual and iconographic sources, all of which are collected, translated and commented on. Breyer not only comprehensively reconstructs the entire organization of the Egyptian expeditions, id est participants, routes, trade goods, but also addresses the people of Punt, their cultural background and way of life.

Abstract

Against the backdrop of the revolutionary uprisings of 2011-2013, Samuli Schielke asks how ordinary Egyptians confront the great promises and grand schemes of religious commitment, middle class respectability, romantic love, and political ideologies in their daily lives, and how they make sense of the existential anxieties and stalled expectations that inevitably accompany such hopes. Drawing on many years of study in Egypt and the life stories of rural, lower-middle-class men before and after the revolution, Schielke views recent events in ways that are both historically deep and personal.

Abstract

Dans l'Egypte de l'entre-deux guerres émerge une nouvelle catégorie sociale : l’effendiyya. Les jeunes hommes qui la constituent - les effendîs - affichent les signes d'une modernité incontestable : diplômés, habillés à l'occidentale, portant le tarbush, ils sont férus de cinéma et grands consommateurs de presse. Conscients du rôle qu'ils sont amenés à jouer pour l'avenir de leur pays, ils tentent de prendre une part active à la vie politique. Mais comment trouver sa place dans une société dominée à la fois par une élite attachée à ses privilèges et par l'occupant britannique ? Comment devenir « moderne » et acquérir une vie meilleure quand la tradition pèse si lourd et que le diplôme mène au chômage ? À travers l'analyse de documents d'époque, Lucie Ryzova brosse le portrait de cette effendiyya prise entre deux mondes et dont la position ambiguë la conduira à devenir l'agent principal des bouleversements sociaux qui marquent la fin de la monarchie.

Abstract

The recent revolution in Egypt has shaken the Arab world to its roots. The most populous Arab country and the historical center of Arab intellectual life, Egypt is a lynchpin of the US's Middle East strategy, receiving more aid than any nation except Israel. This is not the first time that the world and has turned its gaze to Egypt, however. A half century ago, Egypt under Nasser became the putative leader of the Arab world and a beacon for all developing nations. Yet in the decades prior to the 2011 revolution, it was ruled over by a sclerotic regime plagued by nepotism and corruption. During

Abstract

Conquête ottomane de l’Égypte (1517) est le premier ouvrage collectif consacré à la victoire de Selīm Ier sur les Mamelouks, qui a fait du sultanat ottoman l’unique puissance musulmane en Méditerranée orientale, et ravalé l’Égypte au rang de province. Il en renouvelle l’approche en faisant appel à des sources ottomanes, arabes et occidentales très variées. Les contributions réunies par Benjamin Lellouch et Nicolas Michel s’attachent à mesurer les transformations structurelles qu’a induites l’événement dans la société, les pouvoirs, la culture littéraire, artistique et matérielle en Égypte. Elles explorent ses antécédents et son impact géopolitique, et restituent les échos, bruyants puis assourdis, qu’il a suscités, au Proche-Orient, en Italie, et plus généralement en Méditerranée. Conquête ottomane de l’Égypte (1517) is the first collective work that deals with Selīm Ist’s crushing victory over the Mamluks, which made the Ottoman sultanate into the sole remaining Muslim power in the eastern Mediterranean, and reduced Egypt to the rank of a province. The book offers new insights into this major event by using a wide range of Ottoman and Arabic as well as Western sources. These essays in French and English collected by Benjamin Lellouch and Nicolas Michel examine to what extent the Ottoman conquest altered the structures of Egyptian society, power relations, literature, arts and material culture. They explore both its backgrounds and geopolitical aftermath, and reconstruct its echoes - loud at first, then gradually fading out - in the Middle East, Italy, and the Mediterranean.
