Shii Islam: Texts and Studies (SITS) - Description

The book series, Shii Islam: Texts and Studies, published by Brill (Leiden), provides a scholarly forum for scholars specializing in all fields of Shii studies—Twelver Shii, Ismaili, Zaydi, and other trends in Shii thought throughout history. Taking an expansive view of the richly variegated Shii traditions in both thought and practice and their cultural and social contexts, the book series aims to make a distinctive contribution to current scholarship on Shiism and its integration into the broader field of Islamic studies. Shii Islam: Texts and Studies welcomes submissions of original studies on law, hadīth, Qurʾānic exegesis, philosophy, kalām, ritual and practices, classical and contemporary literature, and other aspects of the history of Shiism, including its mystical tradition, critical editions of classical and pre-modern texts, as well as collective volumes on Shii themes.
