Abstract
In medieval Arabic literature a tarqiz is a written endorsement of a certain text,which a prestigious scholar provides at the request of another scholar to support the latter's new writing.In this sense it can be compared to the contemporary ''blurb', to advertise a new book.The tarqiz is important because it connects and offers insights into active networks of like-minded scholars.
