The Ismailis in the Middle Ages: A History of Survival, a Search for Salvation
Virani, Shafique N. (Departments of Historical Studies and the Study of Religion, Departments of Historical Studies and the Study of Religion, University of Toronto)
In the thirteenth century, an edict of the Mongol warlord Genghis Khan ordained that the Ismaili Muslims, who had hitherto resisted all attempts at subjugation, be utterly destroyed. Shafique Virani examines the most obscure portion of this period, from the mid-thirteenth century to the end of the fifteenth century.
