In From Tripolitania to Tripoli, Hafed Abdouli deals with the transition of Tripolitania from late Antiquity to the early Islamic period. He compares a detailed analysis of all the literary sources with the evaluation of the archaeological, onomastic and toponymic findings. For this purpose, he makes use of various research methodologies.
This approach brings about new results. It confirms that — contrary to what has been so far commonly assumed — the transition from the Latin-Christian Tripolitania to the Arabic-Islamic Tripoli was not sudden. There was no rigorous break that seperated the ancient from the medieval period. On the contrary, as was also the case in the rest of the Maghreb, the transition was progressive and slow at all levels of civilization. The interpretation of how this transition occurred, the mechanisms that determined it, and its reflection on the urban landscape during the early medieval period, are among the most important epistemological concerns that this book tries to answer.

The series will publish
- editions and translations of primary sources, especially from manuscripts held in Libyan libraries — which are terrae incognitae to Western scholars. This will offer a wide material to dig into, and deeply renew the historiographical perspectives.
- originals research works (monographs, essays or collections of articles). Among the promising topics we value autonomous powers, networks and prosopography, local and regional histories, popular memories, intellectual productions, documents and deposits, linguistic variety, archaelogy and epigraphy, material cultures and heritage, etc.
We welcome mainly works in Arabic, English and French; other languages can be included too.

Revisiting the History of Medieval Libya (7th-16th centuries CE). Sources, Analyses, Projects.

Thus, this webinar aims at reactivating the academic interest toward this space, that can be conceptualized as a crossroad within the global Islamic world, connecting the Maghrib with the Mashriq, the Mediterranean Sea and Saharan Africa. Following the last conference cycle (2022-2023), in 2023-2024 we will continue to explore the sources available to the historians to write, reshape and reconsider the history of medieval Libya. A special emphasis will be put on new corpuses, especially material documentation.
