Description

Explore the historical landscape of Late Antiquity and Early Islam through this scholarly work from Liverpool University Press. This volume examines the life and impact of Theophilus of Edessa, an astrologer serving in the courts of Muslim caliphs from the 750s to the 780s. During this era, Baghdad functioned as a prosperous and cosmopolitan center of global trade and culture. Fluent in Greek, Syriac, and Arabic, Theophilus synthesized various historical sources into a single chronicle covering events in the Near East from 590 to the 750s. While his original work is no longer extant, its influence remains visible through extensive citations by later historians. This text provides essential insights for historians studying the circulation of knowledge and the cultural connections of the early Islamic period.
