Catalogue of the Arabic, Persian and Turkish manuscripts in Belgium
The Catalogue of the Arabic, Persian and Turkish Manuscripts in Belgium is a union catalogue aiming is to present the Oriental manuscripts held by various Belgian public institutions (Royal Library, university and public libraries). These collections and their contents are largely unknown to scholars due to the lack of published catalogues. This first volume, consisting of a bi-lingual (English and Arabic) handlist, concerns the collection of the Université de Liège, which holds the largest number of Oriental manuscripts (c. 500). Each title is briefly described, identifying the author and offering basic material information. Most of the manuscripts described in this handlist originate from North Africa.

Data overload and information management in the Mamluk period (1250–1517)
Scholars of the Mamluk period were weighed down by a vast abun-dance of texts and had to develop strategies to cope with such data overload. In this article, a series of tools (lists, indexes, summaries, and notebooks) devised by those scholars to condense and cope with the information have been ana-lysed from various points of view. Several examples of these tools have been topologically detailed. The external features of the manuscripts containing them have then been considered before turning to their usefulness for the peo-ple who conceived them. Even though these tools were made primarily for per-sonal use, they proved useful to other scholars, who, in acquiring or copying them, avoided repeating the same task. As the manuscripts under scrutiny here are largely holographs, they were of some interest to bibliophiles as well.

Diplomatics in the service of diplomacy
In 692/1293, the envoys of James II, king of Aragon, negotiated with the then ruling sultan, al-Ashraf Khalīl, a truce that included several provisions. Most of these provisions had to do with trade, but some others had such a political impact that the truce has been labelled by some modern historians as an unheard-of military alliance between two antagonistic Mediterranean powers. The truce has also largely been regarded as validated by both sides. The Arabic version of the truce and a Catalan version are nowadays preserved in the Archives of the Crown of Aragon (Barcelona). Both documents have also been considered as the originals that were prepared as a result of the 692/1293 negotiations. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that this truce (as well as the 689/1290 truce that served as a model for it) was never ratified on the Aragonese side and that the two documents (the Arabic and the Catalan versions) are not the originals that were delivered to the Catalan envoys that year. The demonstration is largely based on a diplomatic analysis and is corroborated by contemporary documents preserved in Barcelona and Mamluk sources. In addition, a diplomatic edition of the truce is given at the end of the study and it is supplemented by a synoptical edition of the copy of the same truce provided by al-Qalqashandī which was checked on two manuscripts.

Maqriziana X
This second part of a study devoted to the history of al-Maqrīzī’s al-Tārīḫ al-Kabīr al-Muqaffā li-Miṣr retraces the history of its copies, first the holograph, then the apograph. By considering their users (readers, owners), this article focuses on the paratextual elements in the preserved copies and on references to al-Maqrīzī’s text in other works to reconstruct the itineraries of these copies across several centuries. By examining consultation notes and ownership marks, we can better understand how these manuscripts changed hands, how the text evolved over time, and how the text we have today may ultimately differ from al-Maqrīzī’s intent. Our analysis of similar paratextual marks – by owners and readers of al-Muqaffā – found in other manuscripts also helps us better understand the interactions between these users and the copies of al-Muqaffā they owned or had access to.
