Hardcover. Condition: Good. 526 pp. Arabic text edited by Muhammad Ahmad Shakir, 3 b/w plates from original manuscript, index, ink annotations on margins, occasional minor foxing, heavier on title page, closed tear to last leaf without any loss to text, copy in overall good condition. Usama ibn Munqidh (d. 584/1188) is best known for his "memoirs" entitled Kitab al-i?ibar, which provides a personal and detailed window into the world of an aristocratic Syrian Muslim in the period of the Crusades. But scholars have almost completely ignored a lesser-known work by Usama called Lubab al-adab or The Kernels of Refinement. This anthology consists mostly of poetic excerpts relating to Adab, the ideal conduct of the male courtier, but, scattered throughout, it also contains a handful of narrative anecdotes about Usama and his times very much akin to the material found in his "memoirs": tales of admirable behaviour, of encounters with the Franks, of Usama's family, and the daily life of the elite of his day. This article presents these narrative extracts translated into English for the first time, with commentary, and with the intention that The Kernels of Refinement will attract the attention it deserves from both Arabists and non-Arabists. #35163.

First Edition
VI, 238 pp. 8vo. Modern boards using the original printed upper cover. First edition. - The autobiography of Usamah ibn Murshid ibn Munqidh (1095-1188), who introduced this genre of writing to Arabic literature (cf. GAL I, 319). Born in Shaizar in northern Syria, where his family ruled a small Emirate, he was banished by his uncle and for a time entered the services of Atabeg Sihabaddin ibn Buri, where he got to know members of the Knights Templar. After spending several years in seclusion as a hunter in Egypt, he returned to Damaskus in 1154, joining the campaign against the European crusaders. The editor H. Derenbourg was the first to discover the sole surviving manuscript of the "Kitab al-I'tibar" (in the Escorial in Madrid) and produced this first translation, afterwards the first Arabic edition (1886) and a biography of Usamah (1889). - A few repaired paper defects; well-preserved altogether. - OCLC 7045652.
