About the Book
Bibliotheca Malabarica is a scholarly study of Bartholomaus Ziegenbalg’s pioneering Tamil library, one of the earliest documented collections of Tamil manuscripts assembled during the early eighteenth century. The book explores the historical context, cataloguing methods, and intellectual significance of Ziegenbalg’s efforts in preserving Tamil literary and religious texts. Through careful research and analysis, the authors shed light on early European engagement with South Indian textual traditions and the transmission of Tamil knowledge systems. This volume is an important resource for scholars and readers interested in Tamil studies, manuscript history, colonial encounters, and the development of early modern libraries in India.
