The Cairo Genizah is well known as a repository for hundreds of thousands of manuscripts that the Jewish residents of Fustat (Old Cairo) produced and consumed in the premodern period. Foreign “collectors” acquired most of these manuscripts for European libraries in the second half of the nineteenth century, with the majority arriving at the Cambridge University Library in 1897 under the auspices of Solomon Schechter. Less well known is the fact that hundreds of Genizah fragments were produced in the late nineteenth century, even as European collectors were scouring Cairo for ancient texts. This later corpus includes witnesses to the social and economic history of late Ottoman Cairo and provides copious evidence for the material history of Egyptian Jewish literary activity at that time. Despite this, it remains understudied for both Ottoman and Jewish history. Late Genizah material also raises questions about the integrity of “Cairo Genizah” manuscript collections around the world, as some fragments postdate Schechter's Genizah “discovery,” and others were never in Egypt at all.

Introduction: Arabic as a South Asian Language

In recent decades, the ascent of the “Persianate world” paradigm has prompted a major revival in the study of Persian sources in and on South Asia, while at the same time building on Marshall Hodgson's capacious original conception of the Persianate as being more than Persian per se by including “more local languages of high culture that … depended upon Persian wholly or in part for their prime literary inspiration.” While this has been an extraordinarily productive cycle of scholarship, it has also coincided and perhaps contributed to the longstanding occlusion of South Asia's Arabic tradition. A single bibliographical citation may serve to illustrate the stark contrast to the Persianate publishing boom: the last English-language book-length survey of “the contribution of India to Arabic” was completed as long ago as 1929.

Kahire Genizası denilen yerde, tüm Akdeniz ülkelerinden, özellikle de 11. yüzyıldan 13. yüzyıla kadar, İbranice ve Arapça belgeler içeren benzersiz bir koleksiyonun bulunması çok heyecan verici ve önemlidir. İbranice bir kelime olan geniza (ya da genizah) ‫]הזינג[‬ ("gizlenme" veya "gizlenme yeri"), bir Yahudi sinagogundaki ve mezarlığındaki depo alanı veya depo anlamına gelir. Bu geniza yerleri, yıpranmış İbranice kitapların ve dinî konulardaki kâğıtların uygun şekilde mezarlığa defni öncesinde geçici olarak saklanması için belirlenmiştir. Cambridge Üniversitesi Dijital Kütüphanesi tarafından verilen bilgilere göre, orada T-S H5.111 olarak numaralandırılan ve İbranice ve Arapça olarak yazılmış bu geniza belgelerinden biri bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, "Türklerle ilgili bir mesele"yi anlatan bu belgenin Arapça verso sayfasını açıklamaya çalışıyoruz. Özellikle Türk araştırmacıların dikkatini bu konuya çekmek istiyoruz. Ayrıca bazı yeni görüşler öne sürüyoruz.
