Falkeiana IV: the shaykh as the locus of divine self-disclosure: a poem in praise of shaykh .Hamahu 'lIah
Among the manuscripts in the 'Umar Falke Collection at Northwestern University is a poem about .Ham_ahu 'll_ah, the 20-th century Tij_an_i shaykh and reputed 'wal_i,' born c. 1883. He was exiled by the French colonial government in the 1920s, and later in 1941, and he died in France in 1943. He attracted considerable attention since his emergence as a Sufi religious leader in West Africa, particularly in Nioro du Sahel (Mali). Although a number of scholars have written about .Ham_ahu 'll_ah and his disciples within the socioeconomic and political contexts of French colonialism, the religious aspects of the .Hamawiyya branch of the Tij_aniyya (in European writing often called .Ham_aliyya) have received inadequate attention. The poem in praise of .Ham_ahu 'll_ah, which is included in this paper in Arabic with an English translation, provides an entry into the discourse of sainthood which surrounded .Ham_ahu 'll_ah.

Les femmes d'Usbeck et la Lettre persane XLVII
Andrew Hunwick : Usbeck's Wives.
Usbek, in Montesquieu's Persian Letters, has five wives. In letter XX, he is angry with his wife Zachi for being familiar with one of the white eunuchs, and also with the young female slave Zelide. Zachi mistakenly believes she has been denounced by another wife, Zéphis, but is eventually reconciled with her (Letter XLII). Zéphis appears elsewhere only as the author of letter IV, but should not be confused with a third wife, Zélis (author of LIE).Hunwick Andrew. Les femmes d'Usbeck et la Lettre persane XLVII.

«Nouvelles remarques critiques sur le Nouveau Testament». Un manuscrit clandestin présenté
Nouvelles remarques critiques sur le Nouveau Testament : An unpu blished clandestine manuscript, presented and edited by Andrew Hunwick.
This fundamentally Deistic text only exists in a single manuscript. Despite its title it does not continue Richard Simon's New Testament criticism. The anonymous author has simply plagiarized many of the Oratorian's remarks and quotations in order to support his own position. He attacks, with the anti-Christian vehemence typical of so-called clandestine literature, the "systematic" ecclesiastics who over the centuries have not only, he says, suppressed their opponents' works and excluded "apocryphal" texts, but have even forged some of the Holy Scriptures.Hunwick Andrew. «Nouvelles remarques critiques sur le Nouveau Testament». Un manuscrit clandestin présenté. In: Dix-huitième Siècle, n°24, 1992. Le matérialisme des Lumières. pp. 239-266
