Abstract
Abstract:This paper examines the use of the terms Filasṭīn and Filasṭīniyyīn in Arabic sources, between 1517 and 1798. Contrary to the general view, Arab writers, both Muslim and Christian, always used the terms in their travelogues, religious texts, and government records. This paper situates the discussion of the use of those two terms in the Arabic tradition of geographical writings with its emphasis on deriving nomenclature from the urban context/Ḥaḍarī, the family lineage, and synecdoche.
期刊介绍:
Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
