Beschreibung
Shi'ism in the Maghrib and al-Andalus provides a panoramic view of the Shi'ite presence in North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula. This second volume provides a sweeping study of Aljamiado literature. It features Morisco traditions that are translated into English for the very first time. Not only were Moriscos producing original works of Shi'ite inspiration, they were also citing classical Shi'ite sources that were produced by Zaydis, Isma'ilis, Twelvers, and even Nusayris. As this book's comprehensive coverage reveals, some Moriscos were drawing from the works of Imam 'Ali, Kulayni, Bahrani, Saduq, Rawandi, Abu al-Faraj al-Isfahani, Ibn Tawus, Mufid, Bakri, Tusi, Kaf'ami, and even Majlisi. They were studying Shi'ite traditions, reciting Shi'ite prayers, marking the martyrdom of Imam Husayn, and reading about the lives of the twelve Imams. By re-examining, re-assessing, and rewriting the religious and political history of the region, Shi'ism in the Maghrib and al-Andalus makes a revolutionary contribution to scholarship in the field.
