Treasures from the Bodleian Library
The Bodleian Library hosts one of the most important collections of Arabic manuscripts in Europe but most of them are unpublished or remain widely understudied. This article discusses the Arabic illuminated manuscripts produced in 14th- and 15th-century Egypt and Bilād al-Shām identified in this institution and aims to highlight their production context and material characteristics. The study of these manuscripts also gives an insight into the ma…
The Monumental Qur’āns of Sultan Shaʿbān
This article focuses on the seven monumental Qur’āns made during the reign of Sultan al-Ashraf Shaʿbān II (r. 1363–1378), considered to be the masterpieces of the Mamluk arts of the book. These are MSS Cairo, Dār al-Kutub al-Miṣriyya Raṣīd 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 54. The aim of this study is to deepen our knowledge of the manufacturing system and the context of production of these manuscripts through the examination of paper formats, writing, and…

However, no mention is made of this artist in Mamluk literature.…

Au cours de la période mongole, des évolutions majeures interviennent dans le système et le contexte de production des manuscrits et marquent un tournant important dans l’histoire de l’art du livre du monde islamique et iranien. Ce sujet pourrait sembler bien connu mais n’a pourtant, jusqu’à présent, jamais fait l’objet d’une étude aussi détaillée. Celle-ci associe une analyse rigoureuse des manuscrits conservés (codicologie, paléographie et hist…
