Download or read book Arabic Materials in English Translation written by Margaret Anderson and published by Hall Reference Books. This book was released on 1980 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography, of over 1600 items, represents for the most part English language translations of original Arabic works. A few of the transaltions listed here, most notably of those of writings by Hippocrates, Aristotle, and Galen, are not originally Arabic, but are translations made of Arabic editions....The aim of the compilaiton is two-fold: first, to provide both students and the general public with an interest in the Arab world (but with little or no facility in the Arabic language), as full a listing of translated Arabic materials as possible; and also to provide for those doing research in such fields as history and history of science, political science, comparative religion, comparative literature, and law, and touching on the Arab world only occasionally, with a partial substitute for the original materials whose language they have had no previous need to master.
