(German-Arabic Hand Dictionary) – In German and Arabic language
Heidelberg, Carl Winter Universitatsbuchhandlung, 1903
***
Rare first edition of the German-Arabic dictionary written by German historian, linguist, and Mennonite leader, Ernst Harder. He studied history and modern languages and for a time served as a tutor in the home of the British ambassador in Lisbon. Later he was an editor on the staff of the Tägliche Rundschau in Berlin, as well as a teacher of Spanish and Portuguese. As one of the first students of his noted brother-in-law Martin Hartmann, he finally devoted himself entirely to the study of Arabic. He was one of the founders of the Berlin Mennonite Church, serving on the church board from 1904 to his death, and as chairman of the board for the last two years.
