INDEX

In the following Index where many reference-numbers occur under one
heading the more important are printed in Clarendon type, which is also used
for the first entry under each letter of the alphabet. To save needless repe¬
tition, all references to any name common to several persons mentioned in the
text are brought together under one heading, the individuals bearing this name
being arranged either in chronological order, or in order of importance, or in
classes (rulers, men of letters, poets, etc.). The letter b. between two names
stands for Ibn ('* Son of..."), and n. after the number of a page indicates a foot¬
note. The addition in brackets of a Roman number after a name or book
indicates the century of the Christian era in which the man lived or the book
was written. Prefixes like Abu ("Father of...") and Ibn ("Son of...") in
Muhammadan, and de, le, von in European names are disregarded in the
alphabetical arrangement, so that names like Abu Sa'id, Ibn Sina, le Strange,
de Slane, etc., must be sought under S, not under A, I, L or D. Titles of
books and foreign words are printed in italics, and an asterisk is prefixed to the
former when they are quoted at any length in the text. A hyphen preceding
a word indicates that the Arabic definite article al- should be prefixed to it.
