Gibb Memorial Series

The "E. J. W. Gibb Memorial" Series is an orientalist book series with important works of Persian, Turkish and Arab history, literature, philosophy and religion, including many works in English translation. Some works were included in the UNESCO Collection of Representative Works.
It is dedicated to the memory of the Scottish orientalist Elias John Wilkinson Gibb. The series was sponsored and funded by the E. J. W. Gibb Memorial Trust. From 1921 up until the 1970s Luzac & Co. became the sole publisher.
The series appeared in an old series – No. 1 - No. 25 – and a new series – No. 1 - No. 33. Some numbers of the series included several volumes.
In 2012 various titles were available from Oxbow Books, a book publishing and distribution firm in Oxford.
In 2022 the Edinburgh University Press was involved in the publishing and distribution of the titles in the Gibb Memorial Series.
