Book Description
The Index Islamicus being published now is the outcome of the responses generated by another Islamic reference work published earlier, titled "The Muslims. Encyclopaedia of Islam"; and its sister publication, titled "Biographical Encyclopaedia of Islam", from readers, scholars, researchers and students from across the world. Both works contain enormous amount of bibliographical references and guides to further study, most of which were books published in the eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth Century. There was no information available on the data connected to these books, to their publication dates, the publisher, and most importantly, the availability of most of these books, making the access to them almost impossible.Most of these books are held by private collectors, government agencies, museums, libraries, and individual scholars. They have, from time to time, issued Catalogues of these books, which themselves have become rare to find, valuable as they are for the information they provide for a full and comprehensive scholarship on Islam. The books were in all major languages including, English, Persian, Arabic, Pusto, Urdu, German, French etc.The Index Islamicus for the first time indexes books published on Islam, the Middle East and the Muslim world. Books cited in the Index Islamicus include not only work written about the Middle East, but also about the other main Muslim areas of Asia and Africa.The publishers have made a beginning in bringing to light all these rare and difficult-to-find Catalogues for the sole purpose of serving the scholars with the information they have always felt the need of.Index Islamicus shall endevour to cover all major areas of study, including, but not restricted to, Archaeology, Arts Bibliography & Scholarship, Economics, Education, Middle East, Geography, History, Islam, Law, Literature, Natural & Applied Sciences, Philosophy, Politics, Religion, Social Sciences, Theology, Travel, &c.
