The Turkic document below fixed the position of the government of the Shah ‘Abbas II to the end of long and hard negotiations with Russian diplomatic representatives towards selling Iranian saltpetre to Russia. Multiple attempts to buy this strategic raw material for the Tsar's defence industry took place since the middle of 1630ies and gained a little success. The written answer given to Russian ambassadors S. I. Kozlovsky and I. Zinoviev gives a short overview of the difficult talks and puts an end to envoy's expectations of obligatory promises to supply Russia some fixed amount of Safawid's saltpetre. At the same time purchases of that kind by Russian official trade representatives were definitely permitted.

The ongoing political and economic transformations have resurfaced the perpetual Russian inquiry into its civilizational identity. Against this backdrop, it's impossible not to take note of several noteworthy exhibition and publication initiatives pertaining to Russia's eastern policy throughout the ages. For nearly 30 years, the biggest Russian museums have carried out quite important exhibition projects in various cities, including St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, Washington D. C., Lisbon, London, Amsterdam and Groningen, among others. These exhibitions trace the significant stages of cultural exchange between Russia and the East. The collections of Russian museums are an important indicator of the importance of the East in the formation of the Russian state and the development of Russian culture. The article opens a new permanent section of the journal called In angello cum libello (“In a corner with a book” = “Alone with a book”). This is an abbreviated form of a motto often attributed to Thomas à Kempis (1380—1471), author of a number of treatises on monastic life. The full saying is a mixture of Latin and Dutch: “In omnibus requiem quaesivi, sed non inveni, nisi in hoexkens ende boexkens” (“I have sought peace everywhere, but I have not found it except in nooks and in books”).
正在进行的政治和经济转型重新激起了俄罗斯对其文明身份的永恒追问。在这样的背景下，不能不注意到几个值得注意的展览和出版活动，这些活动与俄罗斯古往今来的东方政策有关。近30年来，俄罗斯最大的博物馆在圣彼得堡、莫斯科、喀山、华盛顿、里斯本、伦敦、阿姆斯特丹和格罗宁根等城市开展了相当重要的展览项目。这些展览追溯了俄罗斯与东方文化交流的重要阶段。俄罗斯博物馆的藏品是东方在俄罗斯国家形成和俄罗斯文化发展中重要性的重要标志。这篇文章为杂志开设了一个新的永久栏目，名为In angello cum libello(“在角落里拿着一本书”=“独自拿着一本书”)。这是格言的缩写形式，通常被认为是托马斯·孔肯皮斯(1380-1471)的座右铭，他是许多关于修道院生活的论文的作者。完整的说法是拉丁语和荷兰语的混合:“In omnibus requiem quaesivi, sed non inveni, nisi In hoexkens ende boexkens”(“我到处寻求和平，但除了在角落和书本里，我没有找到它”)。

The present article analyses the preserved and recorded narratives of the Qashqadarya Arabs, obtained through the linguistic fieldwork of I. Vinnikov and G. Chikovani from the 1930s to the 2010s. The study sheds light on the ancient beliefs about the origin of the Qashqadarya Arabs. The meaning behind the terminology, together with references to tangible culture, has made it possible to trace a series of ancient myths. These were reborn as a female rite of passage and as an example of female adornment — the septum nose ring (izmam) — which remains the most important symbol of local Arab identity to this day. The traditional legends provide important material for dialectological research, while serving as an autonomous source of historical and cultural information. The study opens up new perspectives for further research into the cultural heritage of the Arabs of Uzbekistan and for maintaining the Russian academic tradition of Arabic studies.

The bipartite division of the Islamic political scene into Sunni and Shi‘a is well known. However, the Ibadi movement is a much less prominent branch of this political scene. A particularly understudied era in the long history of Ibadism is the Imamate, which developed in Oman during the 3rd/9th century. In order to fill the knowledge gap about the early Imamate in Oman, we set out to analyze the political context in which the Imamate emerged, consolidated itself and laid the ground for the Imam to assert absolute authority over his followers. Second, we evaluate the political‑religious context that eventually developed into a protracted period of religious discord and bitter tribal battles. We conclude by appraising the causes that led to an evident time of political and religious stagnation of the movement and to its ultimate fall.

The present paper seeks to briefly characterize Song mo ji wen, a valuable historical monument that comprises rare information about the state structure, culture and history of the 12th century Jin (Jurchen) Empire (1115—1234). It continues the study of the mobility of Chinese officials of the Song dynasty (960—1279).

The article presents textual research paths connected to the works of the Bertuccioli collection, stored in the Dipartimento Istituto Italiano di Studi Orientali of Sapienza University of Rome. Based on the bequest of Giuliano Bertuccioli (1923—2001), the collection is particularly rich, given the historical and personal contexts in which it was created. In fact, Bertuccioli was able to gather his texts over the years before 1949; he had the far–sightedness to buy valuable and important works, of which some are analysed in this article. The purpose is to point out research perspectives on the collection from a variety of research fields, also celebrating the profound scholarship of the late Professor Bertuccioli.
本文介绍了与Bertuccioli收藏作品相关的文本研究路径，这些作品存储在罗马Sapienza大学的Dipartimento Istituto Italiano di Studi Orientali。基于朱利亚诺·贝尔图乔里(Giuliano Bertuccioli, 1923-2001)的遗赠，该系列特别丰富，考虑到其创建的历史和个人背景。事实上，贝尔图乔里能够收集到1949年之前的文本;他很有远见，购买了一些有价值的重要作品，本文对其中的一些进行了分析。目的是从不同的研究领域指出对这些藏品的研究视角，同时也颂扬已故贝尔图乔利教授的渊博学识。

The article aims to provide a detailed stylistic and palaeographic study of the two Nestorian gravestones with Syriac inscriptions (kayraks), published first by Masson in 1978 without images, making recourse to recent photos. One of the gravestones results to be one of the kayraks found in Semirechye in about 1886, already known to D. Chwolson, who published its epitaph in 1897. For the second kayrak a new reading is suggested, different from Massons's; besides, the place of origin of the gravestone is recognized as Almaliq. In the appendix all kayraks found in Almaliq are presented, and their artistic and linguistic peculiar features are commented upon.
这篇文章的目的是提供一个详细的风格和考古研究的两个景教墓碑与叙利亚铭文(kayraks)，首先由马森出版于1978年，没有图像，依靠最近的照片。其中一块墓碑被认为是1886年左右在Semirechye发现的kayrak, D. Chwolson已经知道了，他在1897年发表了墓志铭。对于第二个凯拉克，人们提出了一种新的解读，与马森的解读不同;此外，墓碑的原产地被认为是阿尔马利克。在附录中列出了在Almaliq发现的所有kayrak，并对其艺术和语言特征进行了评论。

Anis al‑muridin wa shams al‑majalis is a mystical tafsir on sura “Yusuf” written in Persian which had previously been attributed to ʻAbdallah Ansari (1006—1089). Recent research has proved this attribution to be incorrect, and it has also been discovered there are at least two recensions of the text. The present article deals with the further questions of the history of Anis al‑muridin. It presents some observations and ideas concerning relationship between the two recensions and their authors based on the comparison of the headings in the texts as well as distribution of the known manuscripts. Also included in the article is the detailed description of the copy of Anis al‑muridin preserved at St. Petersburg.
Anis al - muridin wa shams al - majalis是用波斯语写的《优素福》一章的神秘篇章，之前被认为是阿卜杜拉·安萨里(1006-1089)写的。最近的研究已经证明这种归因是不正确的，并且还发现至少有两次文本的修订。本文将进一步探讨阿尼斯·穆里丁的历史问题。它提出了一些观察和想法关于两个版本之间的关系和他们的作者基于文本标题的比较，以及已知手稿的分布。文章中还详细描述了保存在圣彼得堡的阿尼斯·穆里丁的复制品。

The St. Petersburg Kunstkamera Museum houses a unique collection representing the tangible elements and technical features of the Harar manuscript tradition. The city played a key role in the spread of Islam not only in northeastern Ethiopia, but also in the Horn of Africa as a whole. The collection is the result of an expedition to the Muslim areas of Abyssinia organized by the Museum in 1913. The expedition was led by Nikolai Gumilyov (1886—1921), one of the most famous Russian poets of the 20th century, a tireless traveller and a brave cavalry officer. In 2008 and 2010 new expeditions of the Museum passed along the routes of Gumilyov. This article is the first part of a series devoted to the study of his collection.
