| book description |
This book contains an edition and annotated translation of the remaining fragments of a maqÄlÄt treatise written by AbÅ« al-Ê¿AbbÄs al-QalÄnisÄ« at the end of the 3rd/9th or beginning of the 4th/10th c. Unlike al-Balḫī and al-AÅ¡Ê¿arÄ«, the two main authors of maqÄlÄt from the same period, al-QalÄnisÄ« is a theologian who was never part of MuÊ¿tazili circles but rather belongs to Ibn KullÄb’s school that aims to defend Sunni doctrines by the use of the dialectical method. These are the only remaining fragments of the great albeit little-known theologian who probably never left the city of Rayy. They reflect his intellectual agenda of integrating the traditionnist milieux in the main theological debates of the 3rd/9th c. The history he writes of early kalÄm differs from that of the MuÊ¿tazilis and the Hanbalis, who both agree that theologians and traditionnists are two mutually exclusive professions. Through the category of «　traditionnists theologians　» which appears for the first time in these fragments, al-QalÄnisÄ« takes part with al-AÅ¡Ê¿arÄ« in the great synthesis of the 4th/10th c. However, despite all their similarities, their two historiographical projects differ greatly one from another. The study preceding the edition sheds a new light on the strategy of al-QalÄnisÄ« in order to explain the reasons behind the success of al-AÅ¡Ê¿arÄ« whose school relegated this early and flourishing period of Sunni kalÄm in the margins of orthodoxy.
