Catalogue of Mongol books, manuscripts and xylographs
Heissig, Walther., by Walther Heissig assisted by Charles Bawden.
The Mongol Collection of the Royal Library of Copenhagen consists of 560 manuscripts and xylo-graphs in the Mongolian language. Of these ten are kept in the National Museum of Copenhagen'.With this number of works it is one of the largest collections of Mongolian literature outside Russia and Mongolia itself. It is there outnumbered only by the newly created Mongol collection of the Inter-national Academy of Indian Culture, New Delhi. The latter, however, comprises only Buddhist works in the Mongolian language. First and foremost as a result of the efforts of the late Kaare Grønbech, professor of Central Asiatic languages in the University of Copenhagen, the Copenhagen collection gives a comprehensive view of the wide range of Mongolian Buddhist literature, secular, semi-secular, and religious.
