Multilingual Publishing Series
One of
the pioneering projects in the field of heritage publishing. It aims
at the publication of rare codices reflecting the rich nature and
variegation of the Arabic heritage, specially the works pertaining
to the history of science; and introducing the treasures of Arabic
contributions to the human intellectual experience to various
cultures. It is expected to help in highlighting the actual
development of scientific theories, in addition to establishing an
objective perspective of the history of science underpinned by firm
evidences from the original masterpieces of Arabic legacy. Each book
in the series is provided with translations of the authenticated
text into English, French and German along with a facsimile of the
original manuscript. To date, two books have been published namely,
Māhiyat al-Athar alladhī Yabdū ‘alā Wajh al-Qamar- ‘The Trace on the
Moon’s Face’ by Ibn al-Haytham, and Maqāla fī al-Naqras - ‘Treatise
on Gout’ by al-Rāzī. The third book, Muqaddima fīl-Tasawwuf -
‘Introduction to Sufism’ by al-Sulamī, is to be released in the near
future.
