Foreign merchants in cities like Istanbul, Damascus or Alexandria could barely prove any claim, as neither their contracts nor their words were of any value if countered by Muslims. Francisco Apellániz explores how both groups labored to overcome these 'biases against non- Muslims' in the courts and markets of Mamluk Egypt and Syria of the 14th and 15th centuries, and how the Ottoman conquest (1517) imposed a new, orthodox view on the problem. The book dives into the Middle Eastern archive and the Ottoman Dīvān, and scrutinizes the intricacies of sharia and the handling of these intracacies by consuls, dragomans, qaḍīs and other legal actors"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed. 590 |bBrill eBooks, open access 648 7 1250-1918|2fast 650 0 Dhimmis (Islamic law)|zMiddle East|xHistory. 650 0 Witnesses (Islamic law)|zMiddle East|xHistory. 650 0 Authentication|zMiddle East|xHistory. 650 0 Merchants|xLegal status, laws, etc.|zMiddle East|xHistory. 650 7 Authentication.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00821630 650 7 Dhimmis (Islamic law)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01797956 650 7 Merchants|xLegal status, laws, etc.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01017066 650 7 Witnesses (Islamic law)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01176402 651 0 Egypt|xHistory|y1250-1517. 651 0 Syria|xHistory|y1260-1516. 651 0 Turkey|xHistory|yOttoman Empire, 1288-1918. 651 7 Egypt.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01208755 651 7 Middle East.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01241586 651 7 Syria.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01208757 651 7 Turkey.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01208963 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aApellániz Ruiz de Galarreta, Francisco Javier, 1974-|tBreaching the bronze wall|dBoston ; Leiden : Brill, 2020.|z9789004382749|w(DLC) 2020018154 914 on1152457388 994 92|bSTJ
