Stefanie Brinkmann is Research Fellow at the Bibliotheca Arabica<\/em> Project<\/em> funded by the Saxon Academy of Sciences and Humanities in Leipzig, Germany. During her time as research associate and acting professor for Arabic and Islamic Studies at the universities of Leipzig, Freiburg im Breisgau and Hamburg, she served as research assistant and principal investigator of a number of manuscript projects, and she was a long-term board member of The Islamic Manuscript Association. Her main research interests are manuscript studies, hadith, material culture (especially the history of food and drink), and classical Arabic poetry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n The Bibliotheca Arabica Project<\/em> (2018-2035, PI: Prof. Dr. Verena Klemm) investigates the history of Arabic literatures from the 12th to the 19th centuries, using manuscript data and physical manuscripts as main sources of information. My first module is dedicated to commentaries on Prophetic tradition (hadith). The main research questions focus on the definition of hadith commentary, terminology, transformations of the genre, neglected sub-genres, as well as the production, transmission, and use of chosen texts. Special attention is given to marginal commentaries in hadith manuscripts. While a number of articles investigate these above-mentioned questions, the monograph is dedicated to the post-canonical hadith collection of al-\u1e24usayn b. Mas\u02bf\u016bd al-Baghaw\u012b (d. 516\/1122) and the commentaries written on this collection, the vast majority of which has not been edited yet. I am especially interested in the cultural contexts in which these commentaries were produced, and where and when these texts circulated. I am currently editing a volume on marginal commentaries in Arabic manuscripts together with my colleague Boris Liebrenz (Brill, forthcoming 2023). <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMarginal Commentaries in Hadith Manuscripts\u201d, in: Practices in Commentary<\/em>, edited by Markus Stock, and Christine Lechtermann, Frankfurt a.M. 2020 [special issue of Zeitspr\u00fcnge, Forschungen zur Fr\u00fchen Neuzeit<\/em>, Sonderband 24], pp. 6-44. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Brinkmann, S. \/ Ciotti, G. \/ Wilden, E. \/ Valente, S.
