| Abstract
|
:
|
Established in London in 2002, the Aga Khan University, Institute for the Study of Muslim Civilisations aims to strengthen research and teaching about the heritages of Muslim societies as they have evolved over time, and to examine the challenges these societies face in today's globalised world. It also seeks to create opportunities for interaction among academics, traditionally trained scholars, innovative thinkers and leaders, in an effort to promote dialogue and build bridges.

This series presents an innovative reference catalogue of annotated bibliographies and abstracts of encyclopedias published during the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries. By translating these in up to eight languages, the MCA series aims not only to represent the diversity of Muslim societies, but also to make accessible to scholars, students and the public at large the plethora of existing scholarship about Muslim civilisations.

Encyclopedias about Muslim Civilisations-Edited by Aptin Khanbaghi.
|
|
|
:
|
The first volume in the Muslim Civilisations Abstracts series is a reference catalogue of 200 annotated bibliographies and abstracts of encyclopedias published during the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Material has been made available in English, Arabic and Turkish. Volumes in the series seek not only to represent the diversity of Muslim societies, but also to create access to and reinforce communication between scholars and institutions across Muslim contexts, where the sharing of knowledge and information has often been hindered due to language barriers.
