Scope and content

A typed copy of Rehatsek's translation of the Nigaristan. It is untitled beginning with the heading "In the Name of Allah the Merciful the Clement". There are some handwritten corrections on the document. There are 744 pages on Orbit watermarked paper - the style of paper and type suggest this is a much later copy belonging to the mid-twentieth century. With the typescript is a note on which is written "Typescript tr. from Persian of Nigaristan of Mncini Translater? = Rehatsek - 1886? Ms in Lower Case 6". This is written on the reverse of a Royal Asiatic Society Reviewer reminder slip from 56 Queen Anne Street. The Society occupied these premises from 1947-1988.
