One hundred years after Lévi-Provençal’s Les Historiens des Chorfa and almost twenty-five years after Oriente Moderno ’s founding issue on sādāt and ašrāf , a new special issue of Oriente Moderno is devoted to the “quest for ansāb ”, along with the quest for ašrāf . Our project focuses mainly on Morocco, and on modern and contemporary sources. Firstly, we will take stock of twentieth- and twenty-first-century historiography, with works devoted to Arab genealogy (Zoltàn Szombathy) and “sayyido-sharifology” (Kazuo Morimoto), and to the intersection of the two (Sara Bowen Savant and Helena de Felipe). Modern and contemporary history is still relatively neglected in a field of research favored by medievalists and ethnologists. Our project aims to reflect on the links between genealogical science, the writing of history and the question of ašrāf , at a time of religious politics. imperial politics and the construction of modern states. Focusing on Morocco, this issue adopts a comparative spirit with three studies on Iraq, genealogical literature in Ottoman Egypt and contemporary Mauritania
