Abstract
This volume complements the selections of Wilferd Madelung’s articles previously published by Variorum (Religious Schools and Sects in Medieval Islam and Religious and Ethnic Movements in Medieval Islam). The first articles here examine legal and political aspects of early Shīʿism. The following studies relate to doctrinal views of the Zaydī imāms al-Qāsim b. Ibrāhīm al-Rassī and al-Nāṭiq bi-l-Ḥaqq and to Zaydī attitudes to Sufism. The final group focuses on the Ismāʿīliyya, their social and political history and aspects of their religious thought. A detailed index complete the volume.
