The 9th Arabic Papyrology Webclass (Winter Term 2011/12): Documents from
al-Andalus

Arabic papyrology mostly deals with documents from Egypt and the East.
However, documents from Muslim Spain have their regional peculiarities
in paleography, terminology, diplomatics, etc. In this webclass, we will
focus on offical letters and agreements kept in the Barcelona "Archivo
General de la Corona de Aragón".

This is an on-line webclass. We will mostly read unpublished documents.
A scan of the document to be discussed will be sent to you in advance.
Estimated time for preparation: 1-2 hours/week. Communication will be in
English.
