The Library of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences - established in
1826 - houses many small and still hidden collections. One of
these, the most comprehensive Hungarian collection of Arabic
manuscripts, is brought to light by the present catalogue. These
codices are described for the first time in a detailed and
systematic way. A substantial part of the manuscripts is either
dated to or preserved from the 150 year period of Ottoman
occupation in Hungary. The highlights of the collection are from
the Mamluk era, and the manuscripts as a whole present a clear
picture of the curriculum of Islamic education. The descriptions
also give an overview of the many additional Turkish and Persian
texts thereby adding to our knowledge about the history of these
volumes.
