Omschrijving

The Ismailis represent an important Shi'i Muslim community, who are now scattered in more than 30 countries of Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and North America. The Ismailis have had a long and eventful history dating back to the formative period of Islam. This dictionary, the first work of reference of its kind, presents the findings of modern scholarship on the Ismailis and different facets of their heritage. It covers all the major phases of Ismaili history and thought, including major and minor divisions within the Ismaili community. The main theological and doctrinal concepts are also covered. Designed as a mini encyclopedia, this dictionary serves as first point of reference for information on all the key Ismaili figures, concepts, institutions, and traditions, as well as regions of importance in Ismaili history. In addition, numerous Muslim dynasties and figures with whom the Ismailis have come into contact are included. This second edition of the dictionary, first published in 2012, represents a thorough updating of the entries, with many new entries also added. Another main feature of this edition is the inclusion of many new items to all sections of the dictionary's extensive bibliography.

Historical Dictionary of the Ismailis, Second Edition contains a chronology, an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and cross-referenced entries on key Ismaili figures, concepts, institutions, and traditions, as well as regions of importance in Ismaili history. In addition, numerous Muslim dynasties and figures with whom the Ismailis have come into contact are included. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Ismailis.
