Description

Explore a deep look into medieval Islamic leadership and pilgrimage with Caliphate and Kingship. This work by Jo Van Steenbergen provides a revisionist cultural biography through a critical edition and annotated translation of al-Dhahab al-Masbuk. This text serves as a summary history of the Hajj and Muslim rule, originally written by Egypt's leading historian al-Maqrizi, who died in 1442 CE. As part of the Bibliotheca Maqriziana series, this book offers scholars and students a way to engage with 15th-century literary history. The research presents a detailed view of political and social structures of the era. Professor Jo Van Steenbergen, an expert in late medieval Syro-Egyptian history from Ghent University, brings extensive academic experience to this translation, making it a significant resource for anyone studying the history of the Mamluk period and Islamic political culture.
