He pioneered Eastern Christian and Assyrian Chaldean literary research and made major contributions to the publication of manuscript texts.

Al Bashir
''Al Bashir'' (Arabic: ''The Messenger'') was a Catholic magazine published in Beirut, Lebanon, by Jesuit. It was published triweekly from 1870 and 1947 and supported the Catholic religious cause in the region. History and profile It was launched by Ambroise Monnot, S.J. in Beirut with the name ''Concile du Vatican'' in 1870 as an eight-page weekly Arabic publication.

Magazines Disestablished In 1998
A magazine is a periodical publication, generally published on a regular schedule (often weekly or monthly), containing a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, purchase price, prepaid subscriptions, or by a combination of the three. Definition In the technical sense a ''journal'' has continuous pagination throughout a volume. Thus ''Business Week'', which starts each issue anew with page one, is a magazine, but the '' Journal of Business Communication'', which continues the same sequence of pagination throughout the coterminous year, is a journal. Some professional or trade publications are also peer-reviewed, for example the '' Journal of Accountancy''. Non-peer-reviewed academic or professional publications are generally ''professional magazines''. That a publication calls itself a ''journal'' does not make it a journal in the technical sense; ''The Wall Street Journal'' is actually a newspaper. Etymology The word "magazine" derives from Arabic , th ...
