Presentation :
Following the three previous workshops held in Marburg (2015), Cairo (2016) and Naples (2017) which paid a particular attention to the sources, methodologies, as well as to the mechanisms and modalities which facilitated the transmission of knowledge through family structures, this Symposium moves away from an emphasis on families as transmitters, in order to focus more on other existing networks, such as institutions (for example madrasa, ateliers) or professional and spiritual links (master-disciple relationships), or on factors such as geographical mobility of individuals. This approach not only would enable the research to concentrate on the question of how transmission occurred, but also to investigate its circumstances.
Identifying patterns pertaining to the actors, the process and the forms of transmission is closely related to the question about the ways in which cross-cultural transmission occurred. This could have taken the form of trade, movement of books, or movement of peoples. The issue of transmitting across neighbouring cultural areas and movement within and between networks remains to be examined in more depth, especially as it directly touches the cultural and geographic spread of topics in the larger DYNTRAN framework. Exploring the movement between networks in Arabic, Persian and Turkic cultural, societal and political spheres could help to pinpoint patterns, characteristics and/or specificities of the areas under investigation.
