Grammatica Arabica

Erpenius’s legacy is both in his collection and with the publication of his Arabic grammar Grammatica Arabica, 1613, which remained a primary reference for European scholars, merchants and travellers for several centuries. He also founded a printing press to reproduce texts in Arabic for the European book market. Most libraries in the West acquired his books for their collection.
