During this period, when the power struggles continued violently, the people of Anatolia retreated into their shells in despair and began to gather around the Turkmen dervishes. At this time when literary and cultural life was impoverished under the influence of foreign cultures, it was seen that Sufi movements and oral literature tradition had increased.

Abstract The oldest surviving erotic manual in Arabic, Jawāmiʿ al-ladhdha, is characterised by a mix of medical and technical advice, interspersed with entertaining stories, hadith, poetry and historical anecdotes. In this article, I survey the organization of information in Jawāmiʿ al-ladhdha and discuss its contribution to Arab-Islamic scholarship. I argue that the author and his intended readers lived in the second half of the fourth/tenth century. The organization of sexual knowledge was part of the scholarly pursuit to organize the massive amount of pre-Islamic scholarship translated into

The Arabians’ opinions regarding this book are varied. Some appreciate the writer’s honesty and openness, due to describing personal matters, such as a sexual intercourse between a man and a woman.

The two taboo concepts of incest and inbreeding are not so easy to detect inclassical Arabic literature.

This contribution explores perceptions of Malta, its people, and its language through the lens of Arabic proverbs and idioms, offering a cultural and linguistic analysis within the field of paremiology. By examining a curated list of proverbs and their thematic implications, the study reveals how Malta is portrayed across various Arabic-speaking communities. The research identifies six key themes: Malta as a distant or unreachable place, a non-existent location, a symbol of religious devotion, a representation of importunate behaviour, a linguistic enigma, and a symbol of resilience during har

Persian critics shaped a localized version of Arabic literary sciences more by choosing the compatible configuration, than by enriching the range of tropes. However, with time, some topics of discussion grew more important and acquired a specific rendering proper to Persian poetry. The adaptation of tawriya or ta
