内容説明

This work sheds light on the evolution of maritime law in the Mediterranean Sea between 800 and the 1050s, a period in maritime legal history whose gaps contemporary scholars have not attempted to bridge. It may allow scholars a better appreciation of the contribution which Islamic jurisprudence made to the development and internationalization of the law of the sea.
