Physical Details:
Collation:
Pages between some sections left blank (see pp.14, 24, 42, 44, 67) ; pagination in pencil, Western numerals, supplied during digitization (mistakenly repeats pp.90-91).
Script:
Ruqʻah ; compact hand, initially carefully executed in a bold line, later much quicker in a finer line ; serifless and freely ligatured with slight effect of inclination toward the right, pointing somewhat careless and in strokes rather than distinct dots.
Binding:
Boards covered in dark green cloth with dark green leather over spine (quarter binding) ; pastedowns and flyleaves in wove paper printed with a floral vegetal pattern in green ; spine gold-stamped with title and decorative accents over raised bands "تلخيص | فلسفة ارسطو | الاندلسي | J.H.D." ; sewing difficult to examine ; stuck-on endbands (blue and white stripe) ; overall in fairly good condition.
Origin:
As appears in colophon on p.422, transcription completed 19 Rabīʻ I 1356, corresponding to 29 May 1937 and 21 Bashans 1653. Likely copied in Egypt in the late 1930s and eventually bound for James Heyworth-Dunne (d.1974).
