Princely Authority in the Early Marw¿nid State
Angebote / Angebote:
¿Abd al-¿Aziz b. Marwan (d. 86/705), brother of the famed state-building caliph, ¿Abd al-Malik b. Marwan (d. 86/705), reigned as the amir of Egypt and heir apparent to the Umayyad caliphate for over twenty years. ¿Abd al-¿Aziz, however, died just a few months before his brother ¿Abd al-Malik, and thus never ascended to the caliphate. The combination of his early death, the limited treatment of Egypt in the early Arabic historical sources, and the illustrious history of ¿Abd al-Malik have left ¿Abd al-¿Aziz a largely unknown figure in western scholarship. This study seeks to revive the career of this largely forgotten amir and demonstrate the critical role he played in the formation of the Marwanid dynasty, as well as the great autonomy he exercised within Egypt.
