In the present book the variation in texts of the "closed transmission" will be studied, focusing on a small corpus of didactic and model poems, with a view to establishing what degree of text stability and change was allowed by the medium manuscript. Categories of variance (relating to work-titles, text, number of verses and their sequence, page-layout, context) and the means of controlling them in the manuscripts of the poems are identified and detailed descriptions of the copies are given.The monograph also includes a presentation of some major traits of the cultural background to the study of Arabic didactic poetry and of its dissemination in which memorization has played a crucial role. The intended readers, editors and other users of manuscripts, are helped to acquaint themselves with the methods employed in the manuscripts to control variation and they are given an overview of the large spectrum of Arabic didactic poetry and of its place in the traditional culture of learning in Islamicate societies.Studies in manuscript cultures ;Volume 5.Arabic poetry750-1258History and criticismCriticism, TextualArabic poetry1258-1800History and criticismCriticism, TextualDidactic poetry, ArabicHistory and criticismManuscripts, ArabicIslamic EmpireTransmission of textsIslamic EmpireVariance.didactic poetry.orality and writing.Arabic poetryHistory and criticismCriticism, Textual.Arabic poetryHistory and criticismCriticism, Textual.Didactic poetry, ArabicHistory and criticism.Manuscripts, ArabicTransmission of texts892.7/13409Sobieroj Florian890523MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910160767903321Variance in Arabic manuscripts1989234UNINA
