After 150 years buried in the archives, al-Huyām fī ǧinān al-Šām is now available in a new modern edition. The first riwāya (‘novel’) written by Salīm al-Bustānī, it ran as a serial throughout the first year of the Beiruti journal al-Ǧinān in 1870. At the end of the year, all 24 issues of the journal were assembled into a yearly collection, which forms the source material for this edition. The text has been manually digitised and the orthography has been updated to facilitate the reading experience. The edition may serve as source material for historians of the late Ottoman Levant, as a new access to early 19th century Arabic prose for scholars of literature, and hopefully as reading pleasure for the greater Arabic-speaking public.
