        Abstract
        The Monastery of Saint Catherine in the Sinai peninsula preserves one of the largest collections of manuscripts in the world, which include a significant number of palimpsest manuscripts (over 170). This book deals with Saint Catherine's palimpsests in Greek language and offers their first-ever inventory. Three selected cases studies are then extensively described in order to showcase the richness and heterogenity of Sinai palimpsest books.
         
        Das Katharinenkloster auf der Sinai-Halbinsel bewahrt eine der größten Handschriftensammlungen der Welt, zu denen auch eine beträchtliche Anzahl von Palimpsest-Handschriften (über 170) gehört. Dieses Buch befasst sich mit den Palimpsesten des Katharinenklosters in griechischer Sprache und bietet eine erste Bestandsaufnahme dieser Handschriften. Anschließend werden drei ausgewählte Fallstudien ausführlich beschrieben, um den Reichtum und die Heterogenität der Palimpsestbücher vom Sinai zu zeigen.
