This past spring has seen two important conferences on Islamic topics
which merit observation.
In mid March CEROMDI, or the Study and Research Centre on Ottoman
and Morisco Documentation and Information (Centre d'Etudes et de
Recherches Ottomanes, Morisques, de Documentation et d'Information) held
the Fourth International Symposium on Morisco Studies in Zaghwan,
approximately 80 km south of Tunis, and in the capital of Tunis itself, in
the Hotel du Lac. This meeting lasted from March 15-19, 1989.
The conference was made possible largely due to the enthusiasm of
Professor Abdeljalil Temimi, of Morisco descent himself, and was inaugurated
in the CEROMDI library which Prof. Temimi has built with his own funds
in the Morisco city of Zaghwan. The ceremony was attended by members
of the government and diplomatic corps as well as professors from all over
the Western Mediterranean area. The topics of the symposium covered the
art and handicrafts of the Moriscos who were exiled from Spain in 1610,
their religious life and the rich legacy they have left in Morocco, Algeria
and Tunisia, as well as in several libraries in Spain itself and elsewhere,
such as Paris and Cambridge.
Participants came from France, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Algeria, Egypt,
Saudi Arabia, the Unjted States and Puerto Rico. Their papers covered many
fields, such as interpretation of their documents and description of their
