Author:
This concise bilingual bibliography is a comprehensive list of Classical Arabic texts on grammar, lexicography, adab, balÄgha, metrics and poetry, which have been edited from 1960 to 2000. Featuring about 1300 authors and more than 4000 text editions this reference work is intended to serve as a supplement to Brockelmann's GAL and to Sezgin's GAS. Research is facilitated by indices of titles and modern editors. As this handbook is unique in its kind it will be a basic source of information for Arabists and scholars of other Semitic languages and literatures.
Reinhard Weipert, Ph.D. (1977) in Semitic studies, University of Munich, is Professor of Semitic Philology at the University of Munich. He has published extensively on Classical Arabic philological literature and has edited the poetry of al-RÄÊ¿Ä« al-NumayrÄ« as well as the poetical remains of some minor poets. He is contributor to the Bibliographie Linguistique/Linguistic Bibliography for Classical and Modern Arabic since 1985 and for Berber languages since 1996.
'Nul doute que cet instrument bibliographique rendra d'éminents services aux spécialistesâ¦nul doute qu'il trouve rapidement la place qui lui revient, sur les rayons de nos bibliothèques, aux côtés de GAL et de GAS.'
