| Abstract: | Mohamed Mustafa Bazama’s The History of Malta During the Islamic Era marks a significant milestone in the study of Malta’s medieval history. While many of the historiographical elements presented in this work are widely accepted today, this was not the case when Bazama first published his book in 1971. Unfortunately, his writings remained largely unknown to the Maltese public, primarily because they were written in Arabic. However, thanks to Frans X. Cassar’s translation, Bazama’s research is now accessible to Maltese readers and scholars interested in Malta’s Arab and medieval past. [excerpt] |
