Summary:Abstract Adriaen Willems has been generally neglected as an Arabist. Recent discoveries, however, have made it possible for the authors of this article to reconstruct a substantial part of his brief life and to document his relations with Scaliger and his years as a student in Leiden as well as his friendship and collaboration with Isaac Casaubon in Paris. The article ends with an assessment of his achievements, and a comparison with Thomas Erpenius.
