            Abstract
            The topic of slavery is largely under-represented in the historiography of Nepal. This source book, aware of this disparity and wishing to encourage future studies on the topic, provides the reader with editions, translations and a study of selected documents and legal texts of Nepal from the period of the eighteenth to the early twentieth century. These sources are concerned with such different aspects of slavery as donations, transactions, bondservitude, forced labour, emancipation, and law.
             
            Sklaverei wurde in der Historiographie Nepals bisher nur unzureichend berücksichtigt. Der vorliegende Quellenband möchte diesem Umstand begegnen, indem ausgewählte Dokumente und Rechtstexte zur Sklaverei in Nepal vom achtzehnten bis zum frühen zwanzigsten Jahrhundert in Edition und Übersetzung zugänglich gemacht und untersucht werden. Diese Quellen befassen sich mit unterschiedlichen Aspekten der Sklaverei wie Schenkungen, Kaufverträge, Schuldknechtschaft, unfreie Arbeit, Emanzipation und Recht.
