he feels that in printer books the
character of the letters is entirely
lost.
Persia is to -day largely dependent
upon lithography for its own.product-
tion .of books. Naturally these are
very scarce. At the 'beginning of • the
mov-
able
m
nineteenth century a press
with
able types was set up in 'Tabriz, and
a certain number of books was print-
ed -.Theeffortisletiwith no sincgurage
merit; however, and had shortly to be
abandoned.
The same taste ;which makes a Per-
sian
sial esteem so highly' the great•calli-
raphists makes hint deplore the ab-
sence,
sence• of character in'a type printed
book. What delights him most in this
relation is a well written manuscript,.
and" he tames 'the same delight in the
copyist's work that we take in the
touch of an old' master. Failing this,
he contents himself with a lithograph,
which is usually a facsimile of the
writing of some fairly '-good. scribe,
' and has, at any rate, a human element
in it. _
It is hard foil us to credit the vasf
amount of attention that is paid tot
calligraphy in the East, where men
of learning devote - years to its ac-
quirement and their. best days to mak-
ing artistic copies of `classical -works._
Although this art Is to a' certain ex-
tent dying out, otaing to the-• cheap-
ening of lithography,'a man may even
yet in Persia become as famous for
his writing as a poet is for his verse's.
A curious contrast is thus -.present-
ed by the Persians, who cling to writ-
ten books, while elsewhere in the East
there. is a rapid spread of type printed
books, printing, bookselling and jour-
nalism in the Orient in the last twenty
'years" or so/ having developed to. a
comparatively' high'degree. Both
Cairo and Constantinople possess ek=
cellent printing' :presses, which 'turn
out numberless books and journals.
