| 總結: | Analyses the narrative function of Khārijism in 9th- and 10th-century Islamic historiographyThe first book-length literary study of KhārijismSheds new light on the creation of historical memory in early Islamic historiography Emphasises the importance of literary approaches to early Islamic historyCalls for a reassessment of historical Khārijism based on the findings of this literary analysisWhy are stories told about the Khārijites – purported rebels and heretics? From the Khārijites’ origins at the Battle of Ṣiffīn in 657 CE until the death of the caliph ʿAbd al-Malik b. Marwān in 705 CE, this exhaustive literary analysis provides a fresh perspective on Khārijite history as depicted in early Islamic historiography. The Islamic tradition portrays Khārijism as a heretical movement of militantly pious zealots, a notion largely reiterated by what little modern scholarship there is on the Khārijites. Hannah-Lena Hagemann moves away from the usual positivist reconstructions of Khārijite history ‘as it really was’ and instead examines its narrative function in early Islamic historiography. The results of this literary analysis highlight the need for a serious reassessment of the historical phenomenon of Khārijism as it is currently understood in scholarship |
