† talismann.¹

Forms: Also 1600s talasumany, talsuman; plural 1500s–1600s talismani, talismanni, talismans.

Etymology: = French talisman , of uncertain history; occurring in French and English considerably earlier than talisman n.² It appears to be a corrupt or mistaken form of some Arabic, Persian, or Turkish spoken word, imperfectly caught by early travellers.Professor Margoliouth suggests that the word intended may possibly have been ṭailasān, a form of hood thrown over the head and shoulders, especially by preachers, but also used by doctors of law and others (see Dozy Dict. Noms de Vêtements Arabes 278). The wearer of this might be designated ṭailasānī, and this corrupted into talismānī. But evidence is wanting.

Obsolete.

A name formerly applied to a Turk learned in divinity and law, a Mullah; sometimes to a lower priest of Islam, a religious minister, a muezzin.

talismann.²

/ˈtalɪzmən/

Etymology: = 17th cent. French talisman , Spanish talisman , Portuguese talismã , Italian talismano , ultimately representing Arabic ṭilsam , in same sense, < Greek τέλεσμα telesm n. The final -an is not accounted for. An Arabic plural ṭilsamān, alleged by Diez s.v., and thence in various recent dictionaries, is an error: no such form exists in Arabic, Persian, or Turkish. The only Arabic form at all similar would be a relative adjective *ṭilsimānī (one) dealing with talismans, if this were in use. The identity of talisman with τέλεσμα was first pointed out by Salmasius, Hist. Augusta 1620.

1. A stone, ring, or other object engraven with figures or characters, to which are attributed the occult powers of the planetary influences and celestial configurations under which it was made; usually worn as an amulet to avert evil from or bring fortune to the wearer; also medicinally used to impart healing virtue; hence, any object held to be endowed with magic virtue; a charm.In quot. 1638 applied to the telesms or consecrated statues set up in Egypt, and later in Greece, to protect the city or community: see telesm n. Among Muslim nations, the potent principle is held to be contained in verses from the Qur'an engraved on the charm.
