Summary
This chapter surveys the extant examples of Islamic literature in Turkic produced in the western parts of the Mongol-ruled world in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, as evidence for the process of Islamization and cultural assimilation occurring under Mongol rule. A brief note on the production, in the Mongol era, of most of the surviving manuscripts of pre-Mongol Islamic Turkic works is followed by discussion of the questions of authorship, content, and patronage for the major Turkic literary products from the ulus of Jochi – the Muʿīn al-murīd, the Khusraw va Shīrīn of Quṭb, the Maḥabbat-nāma of Khwārazmī, and the Nahj al-farādīs of Maḥmūd b. ʻAlī – and for those from the Chaghadaid realm – Rabghūzī’s Qiṣaṣ al-anbiyā and the work of Isḥāq Khwāja b. Ismāʻīl Ata.
