Class A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF TUNISIA (•ROM TIIK EARLIEST TIMES TO THE END OF i88S {IN TWO FARTS) INCLUDING UTICA AND CARTHAGE, THE PUNIC WARS, THK ROMAN OCCUPATION, THE ARAB CONQUES'l', THE EXPEDITIONS OF LOUIS IX. AND CHARLES V. AND THE FRENCH PROTECTORATE. BY H. S. ASHBEE, F.S.A., F.R.G.S. WITH A MAP. LONDON : DULAU & CO., 37 SOHO SQL'ARE, \V. U f A)^ ^^ mf^m^pm^%^^m^ PREFACE *F the four North African kingdoms, or provinces, known collectively as the Barbary States, none is of greater interest, historical or archaeological, than the Bcylik of Tunis. Here flourished Utica and Carthage, which in turn dominated the then known world until both succumbed to the eagles of Rome. Connected 'with them may be mentioned the names of Apulcius the two Catos, TertuUianus, Saints Augustin, Cyprien, and Victor. Noble ruins still attest the former splendour and opulence of such cities as Bulla Regia, Hadrumetum, Sufetula, Thugga. The amphitheatre of Thysdrus, second only in size and grandeur to the Colosseum at Rome, is even now but partially destroyed. The plains of Oued Melian and Oued Medjerda are yet spanned by the stupendous aqueduct constructed by the Emperor Hadrian to bring the water of Zaghouan to Carthage. In the heart of Tunisia the Arab conqueror Okbah fi.Kcd his Kairouan, which became, after Mecca, the most holy city of the Mohammedan world. At Tunis the last crusade came to an end with the death of Louis IX. ; and Barbarossa was there overthrown by Charles V. Our own Queen Caroline, attended by Count Bergamy, visited Tunis ; and there expired the author of ' Home, sweet home.' In the vicinity of Gabes one strikes the great inland sea, which has so much occupied the attention of engineers of the present day. Tunisia offers, then, a rich field for the arcliaeologist, the iiis- torian, and the man of science, and a bibliography of the country (albeit an imperfect one) may be found useful. This compilation, or the part of it comprised between the pages 7 and 79, originally appeared in Travels in Tunisia (see p. 97 post). In offering it as a separate publication, and as an PREFACE. humble member of that series of bibliographies which, thanks to the energy, devotion, and learning of Sir R. Lambert Playfair will soon include all the Barbary States,* we have added a second part, comprising many books and articles formerly omitted, either intentionally or through oversight, and bringing it down to the present day.f The following Bibliography comprises :— (i), Books on Car- thage and Utica, with their history and archjeology ; (2), Books on Tunisia, or on towns or separate districts of that country ; (3), Books partly on Tunisia ; (4), Books on the Barbary States (when Tunisia is included) and their piracies ; (5), Articles in Societies' Transactions, Collections of Travels, Encyclopaedias, Magazines, and other periodicals ; (6), Dictionaries and Manuals of Conversation in the Arab language ; (7), A few books not specially on Tunisia, but illustrating indirectly the religion, cus- toms, antiquities, or language, ancient or modern, of that country ; (8), Consular Reports ; (9), Some works of the imagination : novels, dramas, and poems. The Bibliography is neither descriptive, nor critical ; i.e., we have not attempted to follow the books noted through their several editions, to indicate their typographical or iconographical peculi- arities, or even to analyse their contents ; occasionally, however, we have appended a short note to an important or specially useful work. For the works which have not passed through our hands we are indebted to the following publications : BiUiographie carthaginoise, par E. de Sainte Marie, Paris, Jourdan, 1875. 8vo. The same appears in ' Recueil des Notices et Memoires de la Societe archtologique du Departement de Constantine,' xvii., 69-110. Severely noticed in ' Litterarisches Centralblatt,' May 20, 1876. M. de Sainte Marie was Premier Dragoman du Consulat de France k Tunis. Essai de Bibliographie iunisienne, ou Indication des principaux ouvrages publies en France sur la Regcncc de Tunis, par A. Demarsy, Paris, 1869. Svo. * His Bibliography of Algeria has already taken its place as a standard work. We beg here to offer him our thanks for permitting us to go through the proof sheets of his Bibliography of Tripoli, as it passed through the press ; and we may add that the MS. of a Bibliography of Morocco is in a forward state. t It would of course have been better to recast the whole work. }>ut bibliography is, at least in this country, its own reward, and expense had to be considered. The composition of the first 79 pages existed, and we used it as it stood. The index which we have added, knitting together as it does both parts, will materially facilitate reference. PREFA CE.
