Introductory Notes 

This website provides a chronology of Arabic periodicals between 1800 and 1929. 

Although it is meant to include all periodicals published in Arabic or in Arabic and in another language (such as the usual pair of Arabic and Ottoman Turkish) or in Arabic written in a different script (such as Judeo-Arabic) during the period from 1800 to 1929, this chronology is certainly incomplete.  Furthermore, there remain numerous problems with dating and locating individual publications as well as identifying their owners, editors, or publishers. 

Thus, at the moment we consciously publish a working draft with the purpose of making our information available to the scholarly community. We welcome all readers to submit any comment, corrections, and new data using Adam Mestyan's official email address. We would like to ask all contributors to always refer to the ID of each title – in case of comments on existing entries – and cite their sources, as otherwise we cannot consider the submission for being included in the table. Every contribution will be acknowledged. 

We chose to present the core data as a table containing information on titles, dates of first and last issue published, place(s) of publication, names of publishers and editors, language(s) of publication, and available collections (so far only in English/transliteration but Arabic indexes are coming as well). In addition, we provide various indexes of holding institutions and locations, as well as a bibliography of the most important secondary sources and available union catalogues. To search any part of the website, simply the browser's search function should be invoked (Ctrl-F for Windows, Cmd-F for Mac OSX).

This book investigates female Muslims pilgrimage practices and how these relate to women’s mobility, social relations, identities, and the power structures that shape women’s lives. Bringing together scholars from different disciplines and regional expertise, it offers in-depth investigation of the gendered dimensions of Muslim pilgrimage and the life-worlds of female pilgrims. With a variety of case studies, the contributors explore the experiences of female pilgrims to Mecca and other pilgrimage sites, and how these are embedded in historical and current contexts of globalisation and transnational mobility. This volume will be relevant to a broad audience of researchers across pilgrimage, gender, religious, and Islamic studies.

New OA resource: al-sharekh archive

"AlSharekh Archive: 228 Arabic journals, 277,000 articles by 46,281 writers 

Access to the archive is open to all via the AlSharekh Archive website https://archive.alsharekh.org 

AlSharekh Archive from Sakhr, is one of the most distinguished Arabic digitization initiatives. It is the first and only one to focus on the content of literary journals providing online access to the content of 228 Arabic literary journals, from 23 Arab countries, dating from the early Arab renaissance (al Nahda) in the mid-nineteenth century to the end of the twenty-first century. 

Among the journals are Arab renaissance journals such as Al-Muqtataf, Al-Muqtabas, Al-Hilal, Al-Adib, Al-Ustadh, Al-Mashriq, Al-Jamaa and others. Authors of the journal articles include prominent Arab writers such as Gerji Zidan, Taha Hussein, Yaqub Sarrouf, Hafez Ibrahim, Albert Adeeb and many others. 

The AlSharekh Archive s’ site is very easy to use and navigate. Users can browse the journal issues or search the metadata indexes of the articles. Journal articles are viewed as images and have not been converted into digital texts because of difficulties in Arabic OCR. 

Some characteristics of the Archive: 

● It is the first Arabic digital library focusing on literary journals. Most of the others mostly cover resources related to Islamic heritage. 

● The website and the content are accessible free of charge. Access is provided to more than a million pages of Arabic literary work, otherwise hidden on bookshelves. 

● The journals are listed on the site according to the country of publishing, which helps in documenting the publishing movement at the country level. 

● Journal issues are organized and displayed in chronological order making it easy to access the specified number and the required article. 

● The Table of Content in each issue of a journal provides links to the pdf of the articles on the list. 

● Articles are accessed in their original form as in the print issues. 

● The search box on the site allows searching by the article’s author, title ,and by the title of the journal. 

● Brief author biographies, and bibliographic information about the journals are also provided. 

Procedures to protect copyright are mentioned in the preamble on the first page of the Archives website. It should be noted that many journals in the Archives are outdated and not subject to intellectual property law.

New OA Resource: Middle East Women's Activism (SOAS Digital Collections)

"Middle East Women’s Activism digital archive is a collection of interviews with 96 women of different generations in Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon, which form the basis of a monograph, entitled, Embodying Geopolitics: Generations of Women’s Activism in Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon. All interviews were conducted by Nicola Pratt, University of Warwick, in 2013-2014 as part of a British Academy Mid-Career Fellowship exploring the relationship between gender and geopolitics in the context of the Middle East. The research received approval from the University of Warwick Humanities and Social Sciences Research Ethics Committee and consent was given at the time of interview to make this material publicly available. 

The archive will be of interest to researchers in the fields of gender studies and post-independence social history in Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon. The interviews consist of women’s personal narratives of their family background and education, how they became involved in public work (al-‘amal al-‘am), information about their activism and how it has changed over time and the impact of/their involvement in major national events, amongst other details."

New OA resource: Khamseen: Islamic Art History Online

“Khamseen: Islamic Art History Online” is an emerging platform of digital resources to aid the teaching of the history of Islamic art and architecture. In its initial stage, the platform provides original multimedia content developed by scholars from across the field of Islamic art. These files are intended to aid educators in the creation of an interactive learning environment and to contribute to new ways of teaching in general, bringing new voices, perspectives, and materials into our classrooms. The project is spearheaded by Prof. Christiane Gruber at the University of Michigan and a team of six collaborators. Team Khamseen aims to make this material available to public audiences by creating a website with additional resources over the coming months.

Currently available mini-multimedia files include the following presentations, which were kindly (and very swiftly) provided by international experts. We hope these will prove useful to those teaching remotely this fall semester:

New OA Journal: Ecocene: Cappadocia Journal of Environmental Humanities

"Ecocene: Cappadocia Journal of Environmental Humanities is a digital, open-access, peer-reviewed, international, and transdisciplinary journal of the Environmental Humanities. It is a biannual journal, publishing a Winter issue in December and a Summer issue in June. It aims to develop new insights and theories about the current material and conceptual challenges in the field. Since the complexities and questions raised by ecological and social changes, as well as pressures from global climatic crises, demand interrelated re-workings of humanities disciplines and social and natural sciences, the journal invites submissions that transcend disciplinary categories, allowing us to rethink and reimagine the human-nonhuman relationalities on our damaged planet to ensure a livable future. It will thus seek articles that move beyond species-centered parameters and contest anthropocentric conceptions of reality. Recognizing the relevance and value of deep time experiences of social, cultural and environmental changes, Ecocene addresses the present and future challenges facing our planet. The journal also invites new Anthropocene stories, poetry, artwork and other creative works that advance our cognitive, imaginative and ethical capabilities. The purpose of Ecocene therefore is to create a space for transdisciplinary research and new modes of knowledge in what Donna Haraway calls “collaborative” but also “competitive entanglements” of human-nonhuman worlds."

New Open Access Journal: LAMMA: A JOURNAL OF LIBYAN STUDIES

لمّة: هي مجلة دراسات ليبية تهدف الى توفير منصة (منتدى) يتم من خلاله طرح ومناقشة الأفكار والقيم والتكوينات الاجتماعية والتاريخ والواقع الحالي لليبيا بأسلوب نقدي يهدف الى فهمها بصورة أوضح

ولعلمنا بأهمية مثل هذا المنتدى والحاجة المُلحّة له، سنولي الاهتمام الى نطاق واسع ومجموعة كبيرة من التخصصات والمصادر والمناهج معطين الأولوية الى تلك الموضوعات التي لم تلق الاهتمام اللازم من قبل الباحثين سابقًا. وهذا يشمل على سبيل المثال: الأنثروبولوجيا والجنس والفنون والتاريخ وعلم اللغة والأدب والموسيقى ودراسات الأداء والسياسة والدين والدراسات الحضرية ، بالإضافة الى القاء الضوء على تقاطعات هذه الدراسات وتفرعاتها ومناهجها ونظرياتها المختلفة في الفترات ما بعد الاستعمارية

لمّة هو الفضاء الذي يوفّر التفاعل والتقارب اللازم لهذه المجالات، والمكان الذي يجتمع فيه الباحثون والطلاب من داخل ليبيا وخارجها لإعادة تعريف وإعادة صياغة “الدراسات الليبية”، ولهذه الأسباب تأخذ المجلة اسمها من كلمة “لمّة” وتعني الالتقاء أو الاجتماع

Lamma: A Journal of Libyan Studies aims to provide a forum for critically understanding the complex ideas, values, social configurations, histories, and material realities in Libya. Recognizing, and insisting on, the urgent need for such a forum, we give attention to as wide a range of disciplines, sources, and approaches as possible, foregrounding especially those which have previously received less scholarly attention. This includes, but is not limited to: anthropology, art, gender, history, linguistics, literature, music, performance studies, politics, religion, and urban studies, in addition to their intersections, their subfields, the places in between, and critical, theoretical, and postcolonial approaches thereto. Lamma is a space where these fields interact and draw from one another, and where scholars and students from inside and outside of Libya gather to redefine and reshape “Libyan Studies”. For these reasons the journal takes its name from the Arabic word lamma ‘a gathering’.

We believe that access to research is not the privilege of a few but the right of all and that knowledge production should be inclusive. Besides research articles and reviews of important publications, we are also open to including relevant translated and original literary work, and offer the journal as a platform for the publication of specialized workshop papers or guest-curated collections.

New OA Database: “A World Beyond: Jewish Cemeteries in Turkey 1583-1990”

The computerized database, containing 61,022 Jewish tombstones from across Turkey, is the largest academic tombstone database of its kind in the world. The fruit of the labor of numerous individuals and bodies, its primary goals are to preserve the remnants of the gradually-disappearing Jewish life in Turkey, aid scholars to paint a broader and richer picture of the past, and enable interested laypersons to search for their roots.
