In this project, researchers of history and related disciplines will collaborate to elucidate the processes through which certain texts gain prominence or are forgotten due to various cultural activities in the Middle East during the Medieval and Early Modern periods. The sources discussed in this project encompass not only historical chronicles but also those classified as including "tradition," typically utilised in the fields of literature and Islamic studies, and remain unpublished. This approach facilitates cross-disciplinary discussions and helps overcome existing divisions in Middle Eastern historiography based on language, region, and period.
