Unit One. The Treasures of Timbuktu

Scholars in the fabled African city, once a great center of learning and trade, are racing to save a still emerging cache of ancient manuscripts.

한 때 교육과 무역의 크나큰 중심지였던 아프리카의 전설적인 도시, 이 도시의 학자들은 계속해서 알려지고 있는 고대 필사본의 은신처를 보존하기 위해 서두르고 있습니다.

In the mid-16th century, Mohammed abu Bakr al-Wangari, an Islamic scholar from the town of Djenné, migrated north to Timbuktu of Mali, then a city of perhaps 100,000 and a religious, educational and trading center, and founded the University of Sankoré, a loose affiliation of mosques and private homes that provided subsidized instruction to thousands of students. During the next 30 years, al-Wangari amassed handwritten books on subjects ranging from history to poetry to astronomy, from both Timbuktu and other parts of the Islamic world. After the scholar`s death in 1594, the books passed to his seven sons and subsequently dispersed to an ever-widening circle of family members.
