'Vorwort der Herausgeber. Leider ist es Eduard Glaser nicht vergönnt gewesen, die von ihm gegründete und bisher ganz allein geschriebene Zeitschrift weiter zu führen. Noch bevor der erste Band abgeschlossen war, begann die Krankheit, der er am 7. Mai ds. Jahres erliegen sollte, seine Arbeitskraft zu lähmen. ..."
Was nun die ... Polemik Glasers in diesem Buche anlangt, so seien alle bisherigen und künftigen Leser der 'Altjemenischen Nachrichten' dringend gebeten, sie zu übersehen... Denn Glaser selbst hat durch seine ... im Juli 1907 erfolgte Versöhnung mit seinem Hauptgegner, Herrn Hofrat D.H. Müller, ... all das zurückgenommen, was ... verletzend wirken konnte oder über das Maß des Erlaubten hinausging. ...'
Short description:
In the preface to the first issue of his work, 'Altjemenische Nachrichten', released in 1906, Eduard Glaser (1855-1908) had announced his intention to publish, 5-6 studies a year on the rich epigraphic material he had collected during his four journeys to Yemen between 1882 and 1894.
Eduard Glaser's objective remained unfulfilled due to the gradual decline in his health, which ultimately resulted in his demise on 7 May 1908.
After Glaser's death, Fritz Hommel (1854-1936), professor of Semitic languages at the University of Munich, and Otto Weber (1877-1928), Assyriologist and director of the 'Vorderasiatisches Museum' (Museum of the Ancient Near East), proceeded to the publication of the remaining manuscript.
