- This history of one book in many contexts required accessing and reading massive Arabic sources not available on line at the time and not indexed or digitally searchable (chronicles, 19th-century encyclopaedias, biographical dictionaries, a 20-volume work of premodern literary ‘anecdotes’, newspapers, and magazines, from all of which she sourced her work, and never gave volume or page numbers!). Getting original copies of the author’s own works—the book at the center of this monograph and others—and works with which she was in dialogue, required archival work in Egypt, Lebanon, Germany, and the US.
