His work, which drew from a vast array of sources, enjoyed enduring success among various readerships: Oriental Christians, in Arabic-speaking communities but also in Ethiopia; Mamluk historians, including Ibn Ḫaldūn and al-Maqrīzī; and early modern Europe. A major instance of Christian-Muslim interaction in the pre-modern era, Ibn al-ʿAmīd's chronography is still unpublished in its pre-Islamic part. This volume edits, analyzes, and translates the section from Adam to the Achaemenids.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martino Diez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004549986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004549982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/22\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.30w x 1.70d","brand":"Martino Diez","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45476947525887,"sku":"9789004549982","price":239.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_371dc56e-e524-4de4-8102-d6a6f3e0eb0d.jpg?v=1715918621","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/al-makn-iris-ibn-al-amd-martino-diez-9789004549982","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
