Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Syriac Manuscripts, Vol. 1 of 2: Preserved in the Library of the University of Cambridge
Although the collection of Syriac manuscripts in the Cambridge University Library cannot be said to be remarkable either for its size or in general for its antiquity, it may at least claim to be fairly representative and to possess several manu scripts of the first importance. It is proposed here to give some account of the formation of this collection, and, in View of the number of Syriac manuscripts of S. Indian origin which it contains, to append a few introductory notes upon the Syriac literature of S. India generally.
