Notlar
Consists of approximately 5000 texts in 2194 volumes. Includes works in Arabic (ca. 2400), Persian (ca. 2000 texts), and Ottoman Turkish (ca. 600 texts). There is also a small collection of nineteenth century lacquered bindings and illuminated Persian manuscripts. The new series of Islamic manuscripts represents that part of Princeton's Islamic manuscripts collection acquired between the accession of the Garrett Collection in 1942 and the creation of the third series in 1982. The collection is particularly strong in the areas of logic, philosphy, uṣūl al-fiqh, theology, grammar and Sufism. In addition there is a sizeable number of works on mathematics, astronomy and medicine, and a significant number of Shaykhi manuscripts. Persian poetic and Shīʻite theological works are well represented, too.
Kaynak
The collection was formed between 1955 and 1982, primarily by Rudolf Mach. Mach was curator of the Near east Collections, Princeton University Library (1955-1977) and Professor in the Department of Near Eastern Studies until his death in 1981.
Referanslar
Most of the Arabic texts are analyzed in Handlist of Arabic Manuscripts (New Series) in the Princeton University Library, by Rudolf Mach and Eric L. Ormsby (Princeton, 1987).
