Leather. Zustand: Very Good. Original leather bdg. Folio. First 3 volumes of 5: ([xL], 688 p.; [xvi], 695 p.; 384 p.). Ibn Khallikan's biographical dictionary. [= Translated from the Arabic by Bn. (Baron) William Mac Guckin de Slane, (1801-1878). First 3 volumes of 5 volumes set. Muslim judge and author of a classic Arabic biographical dictionary. Ibn Khallikân studied in Irbîl, Aleppo, and Damascus. Ibn Khallik?n was an assistant to the chief judge of Egypt until 1261, when he became qâ?î al-qu?ât (chief judge) of Damascus. He adhered to the Shâfi'î branch of Muslim law, and for the first years had deputy judges of the other three main branches. In 1271 he was dismissed. He taught in Cairo until he regained his judgeship and returned to Damascus in 1278. Ibn Khallikân's fame rests on his biographical dictionary Wafayât al-a'yân wa-anbâ' abnâ' az-zam?ân ('Deaths of Eminent Men and History of the Sons of the Epoch'; trans. by Baron de Slane, Ibn Khallikan's Biographical Dictionary, 1842-74). He began arranging material for it in 1256 and worked on it until 1274, continuing to improve it with marginal notes. He excluded the Prophet Mu?ammad, the caliphs, and other subjects about whom adequate information already existed. Ibn Khallikân selected factual material for his biographies with intelligence and scholarship and rounded them out with poetry and anecdotes. His book is a valuable source for his contemporaries and contains excerpts from earlier biographies no longer extant. (Source: Encyclopediæ Britrannica).
