Klappentext
The study delves into the rise of Arabic as an imperial language in the 7th and 8th centuries. It combines insights from papyrological, epigraphic and numismatic evidence to correlate early Islamic scribal practices with broader strategies of imperial governance in a trans-regional perspective. Drawing from formal features, the study explores the social connotations which characterized the scribal practices of the early Islamic imperial chanceries.
