Descriptive card

D.N.Boguslavskii's translation of the Qur'an is considered to be the first complete rendering into Russian from the original text. The manuscript of this translation was acquired by Iu. Krachkovskii in 1928 and analysed shortly afterwards; the first print edition was made in 1994.
