The project examines edited and unedited Arabic legal documents from a new comparative perspective. Documents, immediate manifestations of legal practice, were instruments to assure subjective rights of persons for whom the copy had been issued. Most studies on early Islamic legal practice however focus on literary sources (notarial manuals, responsae, juridical image1_0_0.JPGtreaties) and neglect documents mainly for two reasons: 1) cursive handwriting and technical language render their deciphering difficult; 2) the existing collections come from various provenances which hindered until now a synthetic analysis. This project inverses the focus with a new historical perspective: Thanks to its innovative full text database (CALD) that analyses documents by functional components and sequence-patterns, the project reveals relevant variations in structure and juridical clauses among many documents, in great detail and from multiple aspects.

Organisateurs : Lahcen Daaif et Moez Dridi dans le cadre du Projet ILM
S’efforçant d’interroger autrement le matériau papyrologique et diplomatique, ce colloque se propose d’éclairer le rapport entre matérialité des sources et conception de l’histoire. D’une part, il explore le fonctionnement du système judiciaire musulman, et à travers lui, le statut juridique des minorités religieuses, de l’autre, il réexamine le rapport du monde musulman médiéval à l’Autre, aux pays limitrophes de la dār al-ḥarb

ILM: activities and results (Mid-term report 2009 until June 2011)
