Das Aleppiner Kalifat (A.D. 1261): Vom Ende des Kalifates in Bagdad über Aleppo zu den Restaurationen in Kairo: Islamic History and Civilization, cartea 6

Autor Stefan Heidemann
de Limba Germană Hardback – 30 apr 1994
The end of the Abbasid caliphate in Baghdad during the Mongol wars of the 13th century was one of the decisive events of Islamic history. Das Aleppiner Kalifat (A.D. 1261) deals with the fate of the institution from the Mongol sack of Baghdad through the short-lived Aleppine caliphate to its restoration, in Mamluk Cairo.
The often parallel developments and motivations of the historical figures are analyzed step-by-step. The author explores the relations between the events, revealing the contingent character of the restoration. The key for the new interpretation is the Aleppine caliphate. Emphasis is given to the changing patterns of legitimization and of representation of political power.
An extensive political chronography and a detailed numismatic corpus for all major towns in the regions (Egypt, Syria, Northern Mesopotamia, Iraq) and period concerned (1257-1262) serve as reference.

Recenzii

'The work is a useful reference for all those interested in Medieval Islamic History in juridicial institutions and changing pattern of legitimization and of representation of political power, as well as numismatic institutions and coin collector.'
S. K. Bhatt, Journal of Academy of Indian Numismatics & Sigillography, 1993/94.
'Both for meticulous scholarship and for originality of approach, Das Aleppiner Kalifat forms a noteworthy contribution to the history of the Islamic Near East in the seventh/thirteenth century, and should certainly stimulate some rethinking on the functions and development of the 'Abbasid caliphate in Cairo.'
P.M. Holt, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, 1995.
'...this is an excellent work, well made and well presented...It contains a mass of information and, for the numismatist, is probably the only accessible guide to the contemporary references for the historical events of this short but important period.'
MRB, Oriental Numismatic Society, 1996.
'Heidemann's work is onnovative for three reasons. Not only does the book provide a detailed account of a short but important historical period to which previous scholarship has hardly paid attention. It is also the first study on the topic based on both the Mamlū and the Mongol sources. But what is most impressive about the work is the extensive use of coins...Students of the history of Iraq, Syria and Egypt in the 13th century will equally benefit from it as will researchers of the theory and practice of the caliphate and anyone interested in Islamic numismatics.'
Jan Goldberg, MESA Bulletin, 1996.
'Le livre très riche de Heidemann qui présente l'histoire de la restauration du califat abbaside en Syrie et en Egypte sous des aspects tout à fait nouveaux, est complété par un catalogue raisonné exhaustif (pages 205-370) de la numismatique de l'époque (avec 20 planches) qui donne à l'histoire événementielle un fondement chronologique exact et jette une lumière nouvelle sur les constellations changeantes du pouvoir en Syrie et Mésopotamie.'
Heinz Halm, Arabica, 1996.
'Combining as it does solid numismatic knowledge and skills with thorough knowledge of the literary material, and an ability to use both towards the resolution of historical problems, this work is an excellent example of the possibilities offered by coins for historical research…Dr. Stefan Heidemann is to be congratulated on his achievement in thus bringing his material fully into the historian's field of vision.'
David J. Wasserstein, The Israel Numismatic Journal, 1994-1999.
