Treatise on Arabic writing forms and grammar based on manuscripts in the Royal Library in Naples written by Maurizio Lettieri (1804-1849) a professor of Arabic at the University of Naples. The essay describes fourteen Arabic manuscripts and provides bibliographic and textual information on each, including examples of the script used by the scribes recording the text.

The folding plate shows examples of various manuscript alphabets and numbers, and it includes specimens of type made to represent the scripts.
