Description
8vo. (2), 490, (2) pp. Contemporary half calf with marbled boards and giltstamped spine title. All edges red. First edition of this Arabic-Latin dictionary, prepared to accompany the author's Arabic chrestomathy. While both works were published simultaneously, they were sold separately and hence are not usually encountered together. - The Czech theologian and orientalist Jahn (1750-1816) taught at Olomouc and Vienna, where he also served as Canon of St. Stephan's Cathedral. - Somewhat browned throughout, as common. Old Linz library stamp to title page (cancelled); ink ownership of Wenzel Hajduk (dated 1826) on flyleaf.
