Course Content (Syllabus)
The lesson examines the history of the Islamic world in the Middle Ages and Early Modernity, covering the period from the 13th century to about 1800, and emphasizing the historical evolution of the Near and Middle East. The period under consideration begins with the destruction of the Arabic caliphate with Baghdad by the Mongols in 1258, marked by the emergence of non-Arab dynasties (Mameluks, Ottomans, Safavides), and feeds the crystallization of the dogmatic and theological differences between the Sunni and the Shiite Islam, as well as the appearance of libelous movements such as Uhabitism.
