520 |a Shortlisted for the 2020 British-Kuwait Friendship Society Book Prize in Middle Eastern StudiesReassembles the books of a medieval Arabic library that are today dispersed around the worldSets out a new approach to the study of Arabic book culture Edits the most important Arabic medieval book listProvides a new angle on the history of ḥadīth in the late-medieval periodReconceptualises the mobility of endowed books Reproduces the entire catalogue in colourIn the late medieval period, manuscripts galore circulated in Middle Eastern libraries. Yet very few book collections have come down to us as such or have left a documentary trail. This book discusses the largest private book collection of the pre-Ottoman Arabic Middle East for which we have both a paper trail and a surviving corpus of the manuscripts that once sat on its shelves: the Ibn ʻAbd al-Hādī Library of Damascus. The book suggests that this library was part of the owner's symbolic strategy to monumentalise a vanishing world of scholarship bound to his life, family, quarter and home city.
