Description
The series is devoted to the study of scientific and philosophical texts from the Classical and the Islamic world handed down in Arabic. Through critical text editions and monographs, it provides access to ancient scientific inquiry as it developed in a continuous tradition from Antiquity to the modern period. All editions are accompanied by translations and philological and explanatory notes.
From 8th to 11th century, many Greek texts have been translated into Arabic. These testimonia are of great interest for several research areas; e.g. for parts of Medieval Islamic sciences or rather their reception in different parts of Europe; for the history of textual transmission of the translated texts and for the lexicography of classical Arabic. This dictionary provides reliable and complete data on the Greek-Arabic equivalents.
