Рукописи и ксилографы на восточных языках в научной библиотеке им. М. Горького СПбГУ

Ŷ РУКОПИСИ И КСИЛОГРАФЫ НА ВОСТОЧНЫХ ЯЗЫКАХ Ŷ “Korean manuscripts and woodblock prints” by Adelaida F. Trotsevich and Anastasia A. Guryeva; “Manchu manuscripts and woodblock prints” by Vladimir L. Uspensky; “Mongolian manuscripts and woodblock prints” by Vladimir L. Uspensky; “Tibetan manuscripts and woodblock prints” by Vladimir L. Uspensky. Help in preparing articles and illustrations was provided by Dr. Nikolai N. Telitsyn. The never failing assistance of the Library staff and its Director Milana A. Azarkina was decisive in finalizing the project. Every part of this collection has a unique history in the way that it was brought together. This is why chapters dealing with collections in different Asian languages differ in form and method of description. The information that may be interesting for specialists such as the listing of catalogues, the descriptions of manuscripts, facsimile editions, etc. is also provided. In this anniversary year I would like to wish that new generations of scholars in Oriental studies will continue a comprehensive study of the legacy left by our outstanding predecessors: a unique collection of Oriental books. Vladimir L. Uspensky
