International Symposium on Mullā Khusraw

Abstract

First paragraph: Mullā Khusraw (d. 885/1480), one of the earliest prominent Ot-toman scholars, was the theme of the international symposium held in Bursa, Turkey, on 18-20 November 2011. In addition to thirty five Turkish participants from different Turkish universities, five foreign researchers represented Hungary, Italy, the United States and Cana-da. The purpose of the twenty two papers presented at the confer-ence was to bespeak attention to the personality, the works, and the influence of Mullā Khusraw. It is regrettable that neither the Index Islamicus nor the Arabic Union Catalogue contains a single publica-tion on Mullā Khusraw. To provide an accessible scholarly work on his scholarship, the organizers intend to publish the proceedings during the year. In particular, Ottomanists and Islamicists would welcome this publication.
