| Popis: | While the main vehicle for the spread of Andalusi and Maghribi intellectual production in space and time was the circulation of books and the mobility of scholars, scholars outside the Maghrib also played an important role by commenting on, expanding or refuting works produced in the Islamic West. In this paper I will concentrate on the presence of this sort of intellectual production in the Horn of Africa, using the materials cataloged for the project Islam in the Horn of Africa: A Comparative Literary Approach. Thousands of Arabic manuscripts and other types of writings from different locations, mainly produced between the 18th century and the 20th century in the Horn were cataloged between 2014 and 2018, and have been classified according to genre, content, author, title, place of creation, etc. |
