Until recently the Isma`ilis were judged almost exclusively on the
basis of the hostile accounts of their Muslim enemies and the
fanciful tales of the Crusaders. As a result, numerous
misconceptions were disseminated about the teachings and practices
of the Isma'ilis, known in European tradition as the Assassins. In
the 1930s, however, authentic Isma`ili texts began to be recovered
from private collections which shed new light on mediaeval Isma`ili
history and thought. This collective volume brings together some of
the original results of modern scholarship in the area, written by
leading contemporary authorities, as well as distinguished
Islamists.
