For a lot of the 20th century, the highbrow lifetime of the Ottoman and Arabic-Islamic international within the 17th century used to be neglected or mischaracterized via historians. Ottomanists normally observed the 17th century as marking the tip of Ottoman cultural florescence, whereas smooth Arab nationalist historians tended to work out it as yet one more century of highbrow darkness less than Ottoman rule. This e-book is the 1st sustained attempt at investigating a number of the highbrow currents between Ottoman and North African students of the early smooth interval. analyzing the highbrow creation of the ranks of discovered ulema (scholars) via shut readings of varied treatises, commentaries, and marginalia, Khaled El-Rouayheb argues for a extra textured - and text-centered - figuring out of the colourful trade of rules and transmission of data throughout an unlimited expanse of Ottoman-controlled territory.
