A Survey on the Manuscripts of Kitāb Al-Ṭīb By Muḥammad B. Al-Ḥasan B. Ibrāhīm Al-Khāzin

The treatise called “kitāb alṭīb” is a work composed by muḥammad bin alḥasan bin ibrāhīm alkhāzin (living in 421/1030), dealing with aromatic substances. there are four known copies of this work, the oldest one (princeton, garrett, 174b) dated 590/1194, in its present situation, is incomplete and disorderly. rearranging this manuscript and clarifying the relationship between all extant manuscripts of the work seem necessary for a critical edition of it. based on the repetition of a note referring to the contents and order of treatises in three codices, similarities in the colophon of them, different readings of same words in each of these manuscripts, as well as the text conflations, the most probable explanation is that the princeton manuscript has been the basis of copying the other three manuscripts.the treatise called “kitāb alṭīb” is a work composed by muḥammad bin alḥasan bin ibrāhīm alkhāzin (living in 421/1030), dealing with aromatic substances. there are four known copies of this work, the oldest one (princeton, garrett, 174b) dated 590/1194, in its present situation, is incomplete and disorderly. rearranging this manuscript and clarifying the relationship between all extant manuscripts of the work seem necessary for a critical edition of it. based on the repetition of a note referring to the contents and order of treatises in three codices, similarities in the colophon of them, different readings of same words in each of these manuscripts, as well as the text conflations, the most probable explanation is that the princeton manuscript has been the basis of copying the other three manuscripts.the treatise called “kitāb alṭīb” is a work composed by muḥammad bin alḥasan bin ibrāhīm alkhāzin (living in 421/1030), dealing with aromatic substances. there are four known copies of this work, the oldest one (princeton, garrett, 174b) dated 590/1194, in its present situation, is incomplete and disorderly. rearranging this manuscript and clarifying the relationship between all extant manuscripts of the work seem necessary for a critical edition of it. based on the repetition of a note referring to the contents and order of treatises in three codices, similarities in the colophon of them, different readings of same words in each of these manuscripts, as well as the text conflations, the most probable explanation is that the princeton manuscript has been the basis of copying the other three manuscripts.
