Excerpt from Arabian Society in the Middle Ages Studies From the Thousand: And One NightsOne Nights, he was not content with pro ducing aimere rendering of the Arabic text: he saw that the manners and ideas there described required a commentary if they were to become intelligible to an unlearned reader. At the end of each chapter of his translation, therefore, he appended a series of explanatory notes, which often reached the proportions of elaborate essays on the main characteristics of Mohammadan life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Arabic-English Lexicon, Derived From the Best and the Most Copious Eastern Sources, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising a Very Large Collection of Words and Significations Omitted in the K moos; Part 7 Restricting myself, therefore, to articles completed by Mr. Lane, I first instituted a minute survey of the existing ms. With a View to ascertaining its deficiencies. Since some articles were written thirty years earlier than others it was natural to expect some inequality in the work, and the suspicion was increased by the discovery that whereas Mr. Lane was in the habit of cutting out articles from the later volumes of his ms. And sending them unaltered to the printers, be generally copied out the articles occurring in the earlier volumes. Knowing, however, the finality which characterized my Uncle's work, and also the almost fastidious cleanness which he always desired in his copy, I was led to believe that the practice of rewriting his earlier articles was due more to his consideration for the compositor than to any variation in his scholarship. A detailed investigation proved the correctness of this belief. The copied articles differ in no important particular from the original ms. A few changes in abbreviations and punctuation, with a View to conciseness, had to be made in order to render the earlier articles con sistent with the later. Sometimes a paragraph was rearranged, but it was a rare case to find any addition or any correction of moment. The only deficiency was in the omission of the readings of the 'obah, the ms. Of which was acquired later than the composition of the greater part of the Lexicon: but as the 'obab seldom offers a new interpretation, and is generally useful only as confirming other authorities, this omission is not of serious importance. A few articles, chie&#64258;y those ending in a were taken down in the order of the various native lexicons and left unarranged. These I have of course arranged. The Slight alterations in abbreviations and punctuation necessary to make the earlier articles consistent with the later I have made. Beyond these changes, I have in no way interfered with my Uncle's ms., unless the cor rection of obvious clerical errors and the insertion of a few needful cross-references can be termed interference.
