Collegeville collection[edit]

It's a bit unclear how many original manuscripts are in their collection, or what their digital strategy is at this point in time (-- the references to 'microfilm' have a somewhat dated ring). Does any one know about this operation? --Shirazibustan (talk) 16:25, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Princeton[edit]

The Princeton University Library website states that their Boodk of Enoch manuscript was one of several used by Robert Henry Charles (1855-1931) in his edition, but the book does not seem to be listed in his 1893 (or 1906) publications on the text. Specifically it says: "The present manuscript was one of those used in R. H. Charles, ed., The Book of Enoch, Translated from Professor Dillmann's Ethiopic Text... (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1893)." The manuscript came to Garrett shortly after the death of Henry Christian Reichardt (d. 1897), so Charles, if he did use it, must have used it before it went to the USA.

Heading[edit]

The heading of this entry was not incorrect. Therefore, I changed my change of the title back to the original title. Apologies for the churn. --WLBelcher (talk) 13:44, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Howard University School of Divinity[edit]

Dear Wikipedians: The account given here is perhaps best moved and made into a free-standing entry? The purpose of the entry is to give a simple global account of Ethiopian manuscripts. The narrative of the Tweed collection is a separate story IMHO. I'll move it eventually, in the coming months, pending feed back. Thanks Shirazibustan (talk) 11:47, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
