History writing in Islamic Egypt was highly developed and no
country in the Middle East has a richer or more developed
tradition. This book is a collection of essays by leading scholars
in the field, examining different authors, their works and the
intellectual climate in which they flourished. Due prominence is
given to the great historians of the Mamluk period (c.1260-1517)
but also to the less well-known writers of the Ottoman period. The
essays are also enlivened by insights into personalities and
customs of the time.
This book will be of interest to historians of the Islamic world in
mediaeval and modern times, and to all those who are concerned with
history writing as an intellectual discourse.
