The project deals with an important new source for the history of Anatolia in the thirteenth century. It is an inshāʾ work (compilation of letters) made in the Rum Saljuq sultanate. The author’s name is unknown, but he almost certainly worked as a secretary in the Rum Saljuq chancery in Konya. He began his work shortly before the Saljuq defeat at the hands of the Mongols in 1243, continued it afterwards but left it unfinished. His manuscript was later bound together with other inshāʾ copied at the beginning of the fourteenth century, during the heyday of the Ilkhanate (i.e. the Mongol polity which ruled Iran and Anatolia in the second part of the thirteenth century/early fourteenth century). It makes up the bulk of a manuscript now held by the Ayatollah Marʿashī Library of Qum (MS Marʿashī 11136, fol. 1-92).This mid-thirteenth century inshāʾ work contains 167 documents, all but one in Persian. Most of them are letters written during the sultanates of Ghiyāth al-Dīn Kay-Khusraw II (r. 1237-1246) and, later, of his sons. Some are official correspondence, others are private – although in many cases sent by princely authors. During this crucial period, the once-powerful Saljuq sultans, who had subjugated most of Anatolia, brutally became vassals of the non-Muslim Mongols.The manuscript has never been edited (except two documents), neither studied. I have presented it for the first time in 2020. I will work on the digital version of good quality provided by the Marʿashī Library. Two deliverables will come out from this project: one book and one research article. The book will include a critical edition of the whole text; a summary of all the documents (emulating the editions of Turan and Sevim for similar manuscripts); a full vocabulary; and a detailed commentary dealing with political history, cultural history and manuscript studies. Indeed this work can significantly enhance our understanding of the political and administrative history of Anatolia during the period which saw a shift of power from Konya (the Saljuq capital) to the ordus (the camps of the Mongol rulers). The documents offer an invaluable perspective on events that will be described by chroniclers at least one generation later. The documents will also serve to analyze the norms of writings, in particular through a comparison with similar works composed in Iran and Anatolia. Finally, the complex history of this manuscript will be investigated to understand the function of such work within the wider genre of the compilations. The project is expected to bring important results to understand the shock of the Mongol conquest, but also the degree of integration of Anatolia into the Persianate world.

该项目涉及13世纪安纳托利亚历史的重要新来源。这是一部在朗姆酒Saljuq苏丹国制作的inshahu作品（信件汇编）。作者的姓名不详，但几乎可以肯定他在科尼亚的朗姆萨尔朱克法院担任秘书。在1243年萨尔柱被蒙古人打败前不久，他开始了他的工作，之后继续工作，但没有完成。他的手稿后来与14世纪初伊尔汗国（即13世纪下半叶/ 14世纪初统治伊朗和安纳托利亚的蒙古政体）鼎盛时期抄写的其他《伊斯兰经》捆绑在一起。它构成了库姆阿亚图拉·马尔·阿什尔图书馆（MS马尔·阿什尔11136，fol）保存的一份手稿的大部分。1 - 92)。这部十三世纪中期的《圣经·古兰经》包含167份文件，除了一份以外，其余都是波斯语。其中大部分是Ghiyāth al- d<e:1> n Kay-Khusraw II （r. 1237-1246）和他的儿子们在苏丹时期写的信件。一些是官方信件，另一些是私人信件——尽管在许多情况下是由王室作者发送的。在这一关键时期，曾经强大的萨尔柱苏丹征服了安纳托利亚的大部分地区，残酷地沦为非穆斯林蒙古人的附庸。手稿从未被编辑过（除了两份文件），也没有被研究过。这是我在2020年首次提出的。我将在马尔阿什图书馆提供的高质量的数字版本上工作。本项目将产生两项成果：一本书和一篇研究论文。这本书将包括全文的评论版；所有文件的摘要（模仿图兰和塞维姆版本的类似手稿）；丰富的词汇量；并对政治史、文化史和手稿研究进行了详细的评论。事实上，这项工作可以大大提高我们对安纳托利亚政治和行政历史的理解，在这一时期，权力从科尼亚（萨尔柱人的首都）转移到奥多斯（蒙古统治者的营地）。这些文件提供了宝贵的视角，这些事件将在至少一代人之后被编年史家描述。这些文件还将有助于分析写作规范，特别是通过与伊朗和安纳托利亚的类似作品进行比较。最后，这个手稿的复杂历史将被调查，以了解这种工作的功能更广泛的流派内的编译。该项目预计将带来重要成果，以了解蒙古征服的冲击，以及安纳托利亚融入波斯世界的程度。
