Catalogue of Arabic Manuscripts

47 manuscripts are here described for the first time, whereas 309 manuscripts have been described in a Latin catalogue printed in 1851. In the new catalogue the mss are described in English and with more detailed information.
The acquisition history of the collection reaches from the 17th century to the present day and the manuscripts reflect the interests of both scholars and book collectors. The oldest manuscripts are Qur’an fragments written on parchment in Kufi script, dating from the 9th century and the most recent manuscript is a collection of Sufi texts copied in 1905.
