Scrutinizing authors' readings provides information on their tastes, working subjects at a given period, methodology, and scholarly milieu. It also brings a lot to intellectual history, highlighting the texts and manuscripts circulating in a certain context. Eight contributions investigating the readings of as many authors, from different points of view, are gathered here. The studied authors are mainly from pre-modern Islam -- al-Qādī al-Fāḍil, Ibn Taymiyya, al-Ṣafadī, al-Subkī, al-Maqrīzī -- with three exceptions: an incursion into the Ottoman 19th century -- Es'ad Efendi --, a detour by the French court of Charles V -- Evrart de Conty --, and a preface about Greek Antiquity -- Philodème de Gadara."--Page 4 of cover.Muslim authorsIslamic literatureHistory and criticismIslamic literaturefastMuslim authorsfastCriticism, interpretation, etc.fastMuslim authors.Islamic literatureHistory and criticism.Islamic literature.Muslim authors.Franssen ÉliseBOOK9910832934303321Authors as readers in the Mamlūk period and beyond4381035UNINA
