The facsimile pages are printed with the text appearing in white against black: in the 'Note by the Editor', Budge explains that he worked together with John Johnson, then Printer to the University, to find the best method of reproducing MS. Hunt No. 52: 'after making various experiments Mr. Johnson has produced the excellent negative facsimile (i.e. the writing appears in white instead of in black) given in this volume' (p. v). Pencil annot. to p. vi of vol. II, correcting text. The first part of the world history of the great Syriac polymath Bar Hebraeus (1226-1286), known as the Chronicon Syriacum, 'a chronological and historical encyclopaedia', according to Budge's introduction, 'into which an enormous amount of information of various kinds (.) has been crammed': Bar Hebraeus 'deals with histories, religions, languages, the manners and customs of peoples; and adds biographies of great warriors and physicians; he describes battles and sieges and the capture of cities; and the coming of comets and extraordinary appearances in the heavens; and earthquakes, famines, falls of snow, and the freezing over of the Tigris and the Euphrates, and the prices of foodstuffs in times of famine and scarcity' (pp. v-vi). Bodleian Library MS. Huntington 52 is not currently digitised, so this facsimile remains the most accessible version of the MS, together with the only English translation (for which Budge worked from Bedjan's 1890 edition of the Syriac text).
