CONTENT DESCRIPTION
Handwritten copy by Barsaumo Doğan of one of Bar Hebraeus ‘secular’ history of the world

GENERAL COMMENTS
Handwritten copy by Barsaumo Doğan of one of Bar Hebraeus important works – a ‘secular’ history of the world of which there is also an Arabic version (which wasn’t published by the Bar Ebroyo Press). So far, it is the only medieval historic work produced by the press. Note also the presence of an afterword, mentioning among other things the fact that this book was produced (not published) at the occasion of the 700th centennary of Bar Ebroyo's death in 1286.
