Title: Muḥammed Ibn Dāniyāl Ṭayf al-Ḫayāl Drei Arabische Schattenspiele aus dem Ägypten des 13. Jahrhunderts. Unter Zugrundelegung des von Georg Jacob hinterlassnen Materials, bearbeitet und Herausgegeben von Paul Kahle und Taḳī ad-Dīn al-Hilālī

Description: Copy of a complete typewritten transcription of the Arabic text of Ibn Dāniyāl’s «Ṭayf al-Ḫayāl». Paul Kahle divided the entire text transcribed in Arabic into three different files, each corresponding to a «bāba» of Ibn Dāniyāl’s play and each containing different versions of the transcription. To be noted, in particular, is the fact that among the others there is a version completely without the critical apparatus and a version, conversely, fully transcribed and vocalised, with the critical apparatus. The first file comprises the chapters 1‐33 of the play, and is entitled «Ṭayf al‐Ḫayāl». The second file comprises the chapters 34‐58, and is entitled «‘Aǧīb wa-Ġarīb». The third file comprises the chapters 59‐76, and is entitled «Al‐Mutayyam». The files were left as ordered personally by Paul Kahle. Various parts of the text transcribed in duplicate or left out by Kahle himself are catalogued separately.
