The first three volumes, which were published at great intervals, dealt with Mongol and Manchu, Turkish, and Tibetan manuscipts and blockprints. The current work is intended to be the first member of a series to be published jointly by the Library and Brill, and also as a member in the recent but already well established series of Brill, Islamic Manuscripts and Books. A small, hidden collection of less then 200 manuscripts and hardly more than 300 works with many treasures is now being brought to the forefront with the help of this joint project, enhanced even further by the creation of a digital version of all the manuscripts in the Arabic collection. This catalogue has come to fruition over a long period of time during which I had the possibility to study these manuscripts thoroughly and to compare them to their counterparts in many collections in Europe and in the Middle East. The first initiative for a detailed, scholarly catalogue of the Arabic manu- scripts came from Ms. Alojzia Domsa, then acting director general of the Li- brary, in 2004, at the time when I joined the staff of the Oriental Collection. She was also the one under whose initiative the Library became one of the first institutional members of The Islamic Manuscript Association, an international non-profit organisation dedicated to protecting Islamic manuscript collections and supporting those who work with them. The first version of this project, the preparation of an online catalogue, was made possible by two consecutive grants of the Association between 2008 and 2010. At that initial phase, a lot of technical challenges had to be overcome in the online environment, in which Ms. Edit Naszádos and Mr. Zsolt Bánhegyi were always ready to help. The original digital images were created by Klára Láng, whose enthusiasm for the project facilitated everything. The fruitful and inspiring sub-committee discussions during TIMA meet- ings had a great influence on the development of the online catalogue. From among the members of the former sub-committee, I am especially grateful to UCLA librarian and bibliographer Mr. David Hirsch, Royal Asiatic Society cura- tor Dr. Alison Ohta and the Chester Beatty Library’s Islamic Collection curator Dr. Elaine Wright for their comments and suggestions. Their positive attitude and expert attention were invaluable during the various phases of this project. Discussions with manuscript experts like Dr. Ayman Fuʾad Sayyid, Dr. Muham- mad Isa Waley, and Professor Jan Just Witkam, from Cairo, London and Leiden, were also instrumental in shaping the catalogue. x foreword Still, this book would not have seen the light of day if it were not for the series editor Dr. Arnoud Vrolijk and Dr. Maurits van den Boogert of Brill’s, who were the first to propose during the 2009 conference of the European Association of Middle East Librarians (MELCom International) in Kazan the possibility of publishing this catalogue, then in a premature form of a series of online records, in the Brill series of Islamic Manuscripts and Books. My sincere thanks are due to them for their unfailing support and encouragement throughout these years. Naturally, the contents and form of an online catalogue can differ widely from those of a printed version. This book has also undergone many modifi- cations and transformations since the first entries into the online catalogue of the Library. These alterations were so significant in several cases that the records had to be modified accordingly. The majority of these manuscripts were not only written in the Ottoman era but by Turkish speaking people who left their marks on the volumes. In a lesser degree, the use of the Per- sian language can also be observed. Accordingly, I felt it an absolute neces- sity to describe or at least to record in some detail these additional texts, notes, remarks, poems and even the registries of births and deaths that reflect the continued use of these manuscripts.

Januar 2020 LIECHTENSTEIN ON THE FUTURE OF THE PAST A DIALOGUE BETWEEN COLLECTIONS 20 September 2019 – 26 January 2020 KUNSTMUSEUM LIECHTENSTEIN Anlässlich des Jubiläums „300 Jahre Fürstentum Liechtenstein“ im Jahr 2019 findet im Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein eine Ausstellung mit historischer Dimension statt. Meisterwerke des 15. bis 19. Jahrhunderts aus den bedeutenden Sammlungen des Fürsten von und zu Liechtenstein treten erstmals in Dialog mit Kunstwerken des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts aus der Sammlung des Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, erweitert durch Leihgaben aus der Sammlung der Hilti Art Foundation und der Sammlung Batliner. Die Ausstellung Liechtenstein. Von der Zukunft der Vergangenheit verfolgt eine eigene Weise des Erzählens. Durch Begegnungen über die Epochen hinweg eröffnet sich ein Gespräch und lässt die Kontinuität grundlegender Fragestellungen der Menschheitsgeschichte erfahrbar werden. Eine fruchtbare Begegnung zwischen Vergan- genheit und Gegenwart, die Anlass zur Zuversicht für die Zukunft gibt. An exhibition of historical dimensions will take place at Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein to mark the three-hundredth anniversary of the Principality of Liechtenstein in 2019. For the first time, masterpieces from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century from the major collections of the Prince of Liechtenstein will enter into a dialogue with art- works from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries from the collection of Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, accompa- nied by loans from the Hilti Art Foundation Collection and the Batliner Collection. The exhibition Liechtenstein: On the Future of the Past pursues a special narrative. Using juxtapositions across eras, the show creates a dialogue, allowing visitors to experience the continuity of fundamental questions con- cerning the history of humankind – a fruitful meeting of past and present that gives cause for confidence for the future.

The Princely Collections include key © LIECHTENSTEIN. The Princely Collections, Vaduz-Vienna works of European art stretching over five cen- turies and are now among the world’s major private art collections. The notion of promot- ing fine arts for the general good enjoyed greatest popularity during the Baroque period. The House of Liechtenstein has pursued this ideal consistently down the generations. We make deliberate use of the works of art in the Princely Collections as imagery to accompany what we do. For us, they embody precisely those values that form the basis for a successful partnership with our clients: a long-term focus, skill and reliability. www.liechtensteincollections.at 3 Welcome A warm welcome to our Geneva office at Rue du Rhône 21. Following a complete renovation in 2014 our employees in Geneva were able to move into the fully refurbished premises as scheduled. When we began planning the reno- vation in 2010, we had an ambitious goal: we wanted to set a new standard for sustainability in a renovation project. Today I can confirm that we achieved this lofty ambition. Rue du Rhône 21 is our first building to comply fully with the sustainability strategy that we formulated in 2010.
