title = {In Praise of the Prophet},
year = {2022},
note = {This volume provides a contribution to Arabic literary history from an
exceptional perspective. It examines the literary expression of
veneration of the prophet Muhammad, primarily the hitherto little
researched field of praise poetry to the prophet (al-madīḥ
an-nabawī) and its diverse manifestations – as a personal form of
piety, literary contest, or musical performance. Alongside emulations
of the well-known 13th-century Mantle Ode, the volume treats strophic
poetry in the vernacular, mawlid texts, prophetic praise in the
maqāma genre and in the Moroccan musical tradition (nūba), as well
as prayer books and letters to the Prophet's tomb. Many influential
works and poets are presented for the first time in Western research.},
