The present volume is dedicated to the study of al-Ghani al-Nabulusi (1641-1731), an outstanding religious scholar, sufi thinker and man of letters from 17th to 18th century Ottoman Syria. With its focus on a careful examination of Nabulusi’s multifaceted and enriching textual corpus, the present volume offers an in-depth analysis of both his thought and his intellectual milieu. The essays presented here reflect the wide spectrum of Nabulusi’s interests, from scriptural exegesis to theology, from jurisprudence to mysticism, from philosophy to poetry, ethics and aesthetics. The interdisciplinary character of the present volume contributes to a better appreciation of Nabulusi’s impact on the diversified intellectual and religious history of the 17th to 18th century world of Islam, described until recently as a time of ‘stagnation’ and ‘decline’.
