History and profile

Revue du monde musulman was launched in Paris in 1926.[1] The first issue appeared in November that year.[2] The publisher was Ernest Leroux,[1] and the founder and editor was Alfred Le Chatelier.[2] The major topic for the magazine was the developments and social and educational situation in the Muslim countries.[2]

The contributors were mainly French scholars who studied Islam, but Muslim authors also contributed to Revue du monde musulman.[2] From 1911 the board of editors included L. Bouvat, Antoine Cabaton, H. Cordier, O. Houdas, Clément Huart, Louis Massignon, J. Vinson and A. Visière.[2] During World War I the magazine was published irregularly, but following the end of the war it began to be published five times per year.[2] In 1919 Louis Massignon replaced Alfred Le Chatelier as the editor.[2]

Revue du monde musulman was in circulation until 1926.[1][3] Its successor was Revue des études islamiques which was started in 1927.[2]
