Description
Summary:The reconstitution of the collection of manuscripts gathered by the 18th century mathematician Mustafa Sıdkı (Muṣṭafā Ṣidqī, d. 1183/1769) has raised interest beyond the milieu of historians of sciences. Building on the findings made by earlier scholars, and adding a number of volumes not yet identified, the article provides an inventory of some ninety manuscripts that were once in the possession of Sıdkı. This inventory shows that Sıdkı’s interests go far beyond sciences and mathematics, and that manuscripts that belonged to his collection found their way to more libraries than previously known.
