Annotation: In Western Europe, Arabic studies began with the study and translation of the Holy Qur'an, the main relic of Islam, into Latin (XIII century) and the translation of Arabic scientific works on medicine (XI century). Christian activity in this region plays a major role in Europeans' acquaintance with the Arab East. Propagators of Christianity had to be familiar with the basics of Islam. This type of activity continues to this day in the West and in Russia. The Qur'an is being translated not only into Latin, but also into many Western languages.

Keywords: short grammar manuals, Renaissance in Italy, Arabic language and writing in Germany, Arabic studies in Holland, Arabic, Chaldean, Syriac and Ethiopian languages, Napoleonic expedition.
