Contents:
This catalogue is part of one of the longest-running cataloguing projects of oriental manuscripts in Germany, i.e. the 'Verzeichnis der orientalischen Handschriften in Deutschland' (VOHD) which started in 1957.
It contains a description of Arabic manuscripts acquired by the then 'Royal Library of Munich' (K�nigliche Hof- und Staatsbibliothek zu M�nchen) in 1902 through the mediation of Eduard Glaser .
This collection originally involved 157 manuscripts (Cod. arab. 1178-1334); it had been brought together by Giuseppe Caprotti (1862–1919), an Italian merchant who had lived more than 30 years in Ṣanʿāʾ and who had approached Glaser with the request to arrange its sale to a European library. (p. XXII)
Eduard Glaser and the German orientalist and librarian Emil Gratzl (1877-1957) began to prepare a catalogue of the newly acquired collection, but the work was abandoned as early as 1902. Gratzl published a very concise overview of the 157 'Glaser manuscripts' in 1916.
