A Preliminary Handlist of Manuscripts from the Library of al-Ashraf Qāytbāy
This article provides a preliminary handlist of manuscripts that were once owned by the late-Mamluk sultan al-Ashraf Qāytbāy (r. 1468–1496). For well over a hundred items currently scattered across the globe, it details the location, author, title, copyist and page length, as well as the link to Qāytbāy. Introducing the list are some precursory observations regarding the languages represented therein, the identity of the copyists involved, the potential role of waqf in the manuscripts’ post-1517 trajectory, and some later forgeries. In the absence of a contemporaneous catalogue, it will allow scholars to form a more balanced picture of Qāytbāy and of late-Mamluk book and cultural history in general, and will help them overcome some detrimental institutionalized divisions.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Islamic Manuscripts (JIM) explores the crucial importance of the handwritten book in the Muslim world. It is concerned with the written transmission of knowledge, the numerous varieties of Islamic book culture and the materials and techniques of bookmaking, namely codicology. It also considers activities related to the care and management of Islamic manuscript collections, including cataloguing, conservation and digitization. It is the Journal’s ambition to provide students and scholars, librarians and collectors – in short, everyone who is interested in Islamic manuscripts – with a professional journal and functional platform of their own. It welcomes contributions in English, French and Arabic on codicology, textual studies, manuscript collections and collection care and management. Papers will be peer-reviewed to maintain a high scholarly level. The Journal of Islamic Manuscripts is published on behalf of the Islamic Manuscript Association Limited, an international non-profit organization dedicated to protecting Islamic manuscripts and supporting those who work with them.
