And last but not least: "Orbis Romanus. Byzantium and the Legacy of Rome in the Carolingian World", coming in late Spring with Oxford University Press, finally has a cover!
Revisiting a remarkable example of Ottoman cultural cross-over, the 1601 Armenian 'abridged Bible' of Serapion of Edessa (r.), commissioned by the bishop and carried out by the scribe Hohannes and the illuminator Aslan; compare to the almost contemporary Zübdet üt-Tevarih (l.):
Sebouh Aslanian has the unique ability to weave through the personal and scholarly in his publications. This seems to be his most personal work so far. He comes from an Armenian-Ethiopian family involved in printing business.
I am thrilled to share that I have joined the Escuela de Estudios Árabes (@eeacsic, Granada) of the Spanish Research Council (CSIC) as a tenured researcher. I'll be working on the intellectual history of al-Andalus, with a particular focus on Andalusi Sufism and its influence.
New article alert! “What is the status of our Muslim brothers who live under infidel laws and who have not moved to the adjacent Muslim lands?” this is a question asked of a Maliki jurist in 15th-century Fez, Morocco. Read his response in this new article by @JN_Hendrickson

“When the world lifts undistinguished people to prominence, don’t expect anything but the obscurity of noble people” – al-Buḥturī (d. 284/897), quoted by Naṣr Allāh Munshī (ca. 540/1146)
we have a cover! *Navigating Language in the Early Islamic World* I'll give a full summary when the volume comes out, but here's a snapshot of the TOC for now
Coming soon! Blog series/data set. How did the author of the longest book in the OpenITI before 1500 do it? A detailed study of the Tarikh Madinat Dimashq by ‘Ali b. ‘Asakir (d. 1176). Text reuse and citation analysis w/ equivalent of a telescope and a microscope. @ERC_Research
For a scholarly exploration of the term, see Ross Brann’s wonderful article “The Moors?” here: brill.com/view/journals/… 5/5
Please, @nytimes, I am begging you: stop using the word “Moor” to refer to the medieval Muslim inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula. It has racialized connotations and suggests that the people of al-Andalus are an extinct group. 1/5 nytimes.com/2023/07/19/wor…
I was delighted to receive a copy of Ken Wolf’s new translation of the Indiculus luminosus by Paul Alvarus. This Latin text from 9th-c. Spain is a precious window into the history of Christian-Muslim relations and the Cordoba martyrs movement specifically. A great achievement! 1/
