metadata.value: Until the introduction of printing technology during the 19th century, Siamese
  literature was disseminated and passed on in manuscript form only. Unfavorable
  climatic conditions, various adverse historical events and a lack of institutions
  responsible for the preservation of literary manuscripts hamper modern-day scholarly
  efforts to reconstruct Siamese literary history. In order to broaden the evidential
  basis available to scholars of pre-modern Siamese literature, qualitative as well as
  quantitative data were drawn from inventory lists of two manuscript collections, which
  hitherto had been in the possession of Prince-Patriarch Phra Paramanuchit Chinorot
  (1790–1853) and Prince Rakronnaret (1791–1848). Despite these records’ limited number
  and scope, they offer valuable insights into the size and composition of two private
  libraries, access to ancient and contemporary literary texts, as well as into the tastes of
  a highly educated mid-19th-century elite readership.
