Stretching on either side of the road leading to the regions south of Damascus, the suburb of Mīdān owes its development in large part to the passage of the caravan of pilgrimages to the Holy Places of La Mekke and Medina and to the marketing of cereals from Ḥawrān and Biqā '. From the Mamluk era, several urban cores appeared in this peripheral space of Damascus; their growth, as well as the creation of housing estates and the multiplication of wheat warehouses along the road will participate, in the Ottoman era, in the constitution of the urban fabric of a large suburb. Through the chronicles, this one appears as the den of the local janissaries who, throughout this period, will oppose, in numerous and bloody conflicts, the imperial janissaries, installed in the citadel and the districts which are close to it . Analysis of the documents kept in the archives of the city's courts (acts of inheritance, real estate transactions, acts of purchase and rental in rural areas, acknowledgments of debts, etc.) completes the information drawn from these chronicles; it makes it possible to apprehend the various social groups which make up the population of this suburb and to locate them in the whole of Damascene society.

L'analyse des sources arabes, manuscrites comme éditées, permet de reconstituer l'histoire de la principauté de Damas, de 1076 (date de sa constitution au départ des troupes fatimides qui occupaient la ville) jusqu'en 1154 (prise de la cite par le prince zankide Nur al-Din et, ainsi, formation d'un grand État de Syrie et Gazira). Cette étude s'attache a suivre la politique extérieure des maitres successifs de Damas, face aux Fatimides, aux Salguqides, puis aux Francs et petites principautés.

The conquest of Damascus is one of the main events of the Islamic conquests in bilād al-Shām. Consequently, it appears with approximately 1000 narratives in the Islamic literature. This book shows the dependencies of these narratives. It therefore exemplifies the historiography from 700-1300 CE using one single event. Using the method of isnād-cum-matn-analysis the oldest forms of Islamic historiography are reconstructed. Among them are not only the version by Ibn Ishāq, but also the narratives in the futūh-work ascribed to al-Waqidī and in al-Azdī's Futūh al-Sham. Finally, the course of the events is described on the basis of the oldest reconstructed versions. Die Eroberung von Damaskus gehört zu den bedeutendsten Ereignissen der futūh im historischen Syrien. Folglich ist sie mit circa 1000 Einzelüberlieferungen ein häufig vorkommendes Element in der islamischen Literatur. Die Zusammenhänge und Abhängigkeiten der Überlieferungen zu analysieren, ist das Hauptanliegen dieser Studie. So können Aussagen über die Historiography von 700-1300 n. Chr. an Hand eines historischen Beispiels getroffen werden. Mit Hilfe der isnād-cum-matn-Analyse gelingt es zudem die frühesten Formen muslimischer Geschichtsschreibung zu rekonstruieren. Zu diesen gehören neben der Version Ibn Ishāqs auch die Erzählungen, die sich in dem Futūḥ-Werk, das al-Waqidī zugeschrieben wird, und dem Futūḥ al-Šhām al-Azdīs finden. Auf Grundlage dieser ältesten rekonstruierten Fassungen zeichnet diese Untersuchung abschließend die Eroberung von Damaskus nach.
