Works belonging to a specific astronomical genre of the pre-modern Islamic world called hayʾa often include a section called hayʾat al-arḍ. This section discusses the physical and geographical characteristics of the Earth as a physical, spherical body located at the center of the world in a stationary state, along with a discussion of the astronomical phenomena associated with this body. Even though it originally emerged and evolved within the context of the hayʾa tradition of theoretical astronomy, hayʾat al-arḍ sections contain various physical and geographical discussions. This thesis is aimed at defining hayʾat al-arḍ as a distinct genre of scientific geography and at showing how the development of this genre is central to any study of the evolution of not only the hayʾa tradition, but also the geographical and cosmographical traditions of the pre-modern Islamic world. Part I of the thesis contains four introductory chapters discussing different aspects of the hayʾat al-arḍ genre. Chapter 1 presents a review of the current literature and state of research. Chapter 2 provides a brief history of the formative period of the hayʿa and geography traditions in the 2nd-4th/7th-10th centuries in order to shed light on exchanges between these traditions. As a concrete case study, the hayʾat al-arḍ section of Quṭb al-Din Shirazi's (d. 1311) Nihayat al-idrak fi dirayat al-aflak has been edited and translated into English. Hence, chapter 3 presents a study of Shirazi's life and his hayʾa works. Finally, in chapter 4, the contents of hayʾat al-arḍ are discussed and analyzed with a focus on the Nihaya, the evolution of hayʾat al-arḍ, its sources, and its influence on similar Latin traditions and genres. The critical edition of the hayʾat al-arḍ section, that is, Book III of the Nihaya, constitutes Part II of the thesis, after an introduction describing the manuscripts and editorial procedures. Part III of the thesis presents an English translation of Book III of the Nihaya.

520 $a Works belonging to a specific astronomical genre of the pre-modern Islamic world called hayʾa often include a section called hayʾat al-arḍ. This section discusses the physical and geographical characteristics of the Earth as a physical, spherical body located at the center of the world in a stationary state, along with a discussion of the astronomical phenomena associated with this body. Even though it originally emerged and evolved within the context of the hayʾa tradition of theoretical astronomy, hayʾat al-arḍ sections contain various physical and geographical discussions. This thesis is aimed at defining hayʾat al-arḍ as a distinct genre of scientific geography and at showing how the development of this genre is central to any study of the evolution of not only the hayʾa tradition, but also the geographical and cosmographical traditions of the pre-modern Islamic world. Part I of the thesis contains four introductory chapters discussing different aspects of the hayʾat al-arḍ genre. Chapter 1 presents a review of the current literature and state of research. Chapter 2 provides a brief history of the formative period of the hayʿa and geography traditions in the 2nd-4th/7th-10th centuries in order to shed light on exchanges between these traditions.

520 $a Les oeuvres appartenant a un genre astronomique specifique du monde islamique premoderne appele comprennent souvent une section appelee hayʾat al-arḍ. Cette section traite des caracteristiques physiques et geographiques de la Terre en tant que corps physique spherique situe au centre du monde a l'etat stationnaire, ainsi que des phenomenes astronomiques associes a ce corps. Bien qu'elle ait emerge et evolue a l'origine dans le contexte de la tradition hayʾa de l'astronomie theorique, les sections hayʾat al-arḍ contiennent diverses discussions physiques et geographiques. Cette these vise a definir le genre de l'hayʾat al-arḍ comme genre distinct de la geographie scientifique et a montrer comment le developpement de ce genre est au coeur de toute etude de l'evolution de la tradition, non seulement, de la tradition de l'hayʾa, mais aussi des traditions geographiques et cosmographiques du monde islamique premoderne. La partie I de la these contient quatre chapitres d'introduction traitant de differents aspects du genre de l'hayʾat al-arḍ. Le chapitre 1 presente une revue de la litterature actuelle et de l'etat de la recherche. Le chapitre 2 presente un bref historique de la periode de formation des traditions du hayʿa et de la geographie aux IIe-IVe/VIIe-Xe siecles afin de mettre en lumiere les echanges entre ces traditions. Comme etude de cas concret, la section hayʾat al-arḍ de Quṭb al-Din Shirazi (mort en 1311), Nihayat al-idrak fi dirayat al-aflak, a ete editee et traduite en anglais. Ainsi, le chapitre 3 presente une etude de la vie de Shirazi et de ses oeuvres de hayʾa. Enfin, au chapitre 4, le contenu de l'hayʾat al-arḍ est discute en mettant l'accent sur le Nihaya, et l'evolution de l'hayʾat al-arḍ, ses sources et son influence sur des genres latins similaires sont analyses. L'edition critique de la section hayʾat al-arḍ, c'est-a-dire le livre III du Nihaya, constitue la partie II de la these, apres une introduction decrivant les manuscrits et la procedure editoriale. La partie III de la these presente une traduction anglaise du livre III du Nihaya.
