Description

Typewritten drafts of an inedited text (perhaps not by Paul Kahle) entitled “Al-Iskandarīja” on the history of the city of Alexandria, its lighthouse and its canal. With notes by Paul Kahle himself. In the article all sources, and particularly the Arabic sources, that portrayed the city and the canals of Alexandria are scrutinized and analysed. The text is divided into the following chapters: 1. “Die Lage der Stadt”, 2. “Der Kanal von Alexandria”, 3. “Die Stadt bis zur Eroberung durch die Araber”, 4. “Die Stadt der Eroberung”, 5. “Die Stadt unter arabischer Herrschaft”.
