The paper deals with how societies of the past have dealt with their future. It proposes a new approach, called anticipatory knowledge, focusing on how forecasting techniques have been articulated to organising activities in various contexts- highlighting the limits of classical approaches in terms of history of the future (Holscher) or regimes of historicity (Hartog).The approach is introduced on the case ofwater-supply projects, on the notion of water needs, a calculation tool used from the middle of the 18th century in water-supply projects. Comparin four different projects for Paris, between the 1760s and the 1890s, the paper shows how conceptions of the future have gradually evolved, from static to more dynamic conceptions, relatin the future to objects in the present, to trend in the past, to various attitudes towards growth.

This article focuses on domestic slavery, kinship, and the early modern market in 17th -century Ottoman Istanbul. By drawing on the notarial registers (sicils) kept by the legal courts of Istanbul as well as on jurisprudential (fiqh) works, this article dismantles the interplay amongst notions of freedom, kinship, and the economic value not only of slave bodies but also of their labour, which could be de tachable from the body as an object of commercial contract. While grappling with these questions, the article also unravels the fictional capacity of Islamic jurisprudencie in fabricating kinship ties between the master and the slave. Hence, this article aims at exploring the servile component of the market and the social in 17th -century Istanbul.

What was the perception of divination practices in the Jewish Middle ages?. was it really admissible to foresee the future, or did it not instead encroach on contexts reserved for prophets alone?. Apart from exceptional cases, in which the use of predictive practices was justified for cautionary purpose, a board spectrum of Jewish philosophers Shared the idea of the need to take a distance from messages that were without any Foundation, and as such ended up creating an uneasy and misleading confusion with true prophesies-those certified in their authenticity by the fact that they came directly from above

The article examines how folk methodologies for weather prediction influence samll-scale agricultural and fishing activities of Japanese coastal community. Specifically, the article addresses some anthropological questions on how local fishermen predict the weather by developing two diferent forecasting practices: takayama, a practical weather observation technique that combines the observation of the clouds with a traditional nautical technique for orientation at sea and, okite, a model-based weather prognostication used to forecast long-term weather trends for the following year
