14221-ISME Practice seminar

The Mamluk Sultanate through Arabic Texts

Ingrid Austveg Evans

Information for students

BLOCK Seminar in January and February 2026

Comments

In this course, participants will gain an overview of a range of narrative and scholarly sources dating from the Mamluk Sultanate and hone their skills in reading these texts in Arabic. While the main focus will be on historiographical sources such as chronicles and biographical dictionaries, we will also dip into neighboring genres through the analysis of the so-called encyclopedic impulse that shaped the textual culture of the period. Students will not only practice reading these texts for meaning, but also be trained in navigating them for research purposes by studying their underlying structure. close
