In 1084/1685, at the age of roughly fifty-four, and after a long and distinguished career, this Amazigh scholar from the Middle Atlas began writing a collection of short essays on a wide variety of subjects. Completed three years later and gathered together under the title, Discourses on Language and Literature (al-Muhadarat fi l-adab wa-l-lughah), they offer rich insight into the varied intellectual interests of an ambitious and gifted Moroccan scholar, covering subjects as diverse as genealogy, theology, Sufism, history, and social mores. In addition to representing the author's intellectual interests, The Discourses also includes numerous autobiographical anecdotes, which offer valuable insight into the history of Morocco, including the transition from the Saadian to the Alaouite dynasty, which occurred during al-Yusi's lifetime. Translated into English for the first time, The Discourses offers readers access to the intellectual landscape of the early modern Muslim world through an author who speaks openly and frankly about his personal life and his relationships with his country's rulers, scholars, and commoners"-- |cProvided by publisher. 504 Includes bibliographical references and indexes. 533 Electronic reproduction. |bNew York |nAvailable via World Wide Web. 546 Text in English and Arabic. 588 Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on September 01, 2020). 600 10 Yūsī, al-Ḥasan ibn Masʻūd, |d1630 or 1631-1691. 700 1 Stearns, Justin K., |d1974- |eeditor, |etranslator. 700 12 Yūsī, al-Ḥasan ibn Masʻūd, |d1630 or 1631-1691. |tMuḥāḍarāt fī al-adab wa-al-lughah. |lEnglish 700 12 Yūsī, al-Ḥasan ibn Masʻūd, |d1630 or 1631-1691. |tMuḥāḍarāt fī al-adab wa-al-lughah. 776 08 |iPrint version:Yūsī, al-Ḥasan ibn Masʻūd, 1630 or 1631-1691. |tThe discourses |dNew York : New York University Press, 2021. |z9780814764572 |w(DLC) 2019040230 830 0 Library of Arabic literature 910 JSTOR DDA 956 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.2307/j.ctv1jk0hj6 980 16883104
