LibMed 2022-2023 – Revisiting the History of Medieval Libya (7th-16th centuries CE)
LibMed est un blog consacré à l’étude de la Libye médiévale. Il rassemble une équipe d’universitaires issus de différentes institutions académiques.
Le site promeut un projet plus large initié par deux chercheurs français — Sébastien Garnier (Centre Jean Pépin, CNRS UMR 8230/programme PhASIF) et Aurélien Montel (CIHAM, UMR 5638) — qui s’efforcent de proposer de nouvelles perspectives dans l’exploration du millénaire qui s’étend des Futūḥāt (1er/7e s.) à l’installation des Ottomans (10e/16e s.). Il implique des échanges scientifiques réguliers : séminaires et conférences ; actes de colloques et publications conjointes ; bases de données et catalogage. Les sources sont révisées à travers l’édition de textes exhumés et le réexamen de la documentation existante.
Dans ce billet, vous pourrez retrouver la programmation 2022-23, qui prévoit des webinaires mensuels, en anglais et en arabe.

A monthly Webinar (Zoom)
Link on demand at: libyemedievale@gmail.com
Despite being well-known for the Greek and Roman era, Libya remains rather unknown for the tenth centuries of the Islamic era, that began with the Islamic conquest of the 1st/7th century and ended with the progressive establishment of the Ottoman rule in the 10th/16th century. 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 first conference cycle (2021-2022), in 2022-2023 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.
