This volume includes my Greek-language scholarly articles—excluding book reviews and encyclopedia entries—covering my entire academic career up to my professorship, arranged in chronological order of each study's publication, including those published before defending my dissertation.

The vast majority of these concern issues related to Islam and law, although there are also some dealing with either Helleno-Roman law or topics from the history of the Arab world.

Finally, as an appendix, three self-contained, concise studies are published, demonstrating a direct connection. The publication follows the method of photographic reprints to facilitate locating the original references of the publications.

Likewise, the linguistic form of the text is identical to that of the original edition, where one can observe the phenomenon that, in few cases, the correct accentuation is not followed, while the language remains clearly Greek.

In the first case, the reasons were purely practical, due to the printer's limitations. In the second, there was an unintentional "modification" of the texts into colloquial language, which I neither respect nor accept nor value. I owe thanks to the contributors of the Lithmos Publishing House for the assistance provided.
