Investigation of the title and the author of a manuscript

The paper attempts to deal with the recognition of title and author authenticity of a Manuscript. An introduction on the background of the subject in the Arab world is followed by the history of the manuscripts whose titles and names of authors have been somehow subject to obscurity, corruption, misreading, error, and neglect, and then the scholars have spent long years of scientific endeavor to discover the correct title as well as the correct name of the author. The paper, here and there, emphasizes on the fact that scientific cataloging (as the major support of manuscript researchers), is not realized without textʹs internal investigation.
