3. GENERAL HISTORICAL AND BIBLIOGRAPHICAL MATERIAL
I have tried to divide this material into historical and bibliographical parts, but the two overlap considerably.
3.A. GENERAL HISTORICAL MATERIAL
Raffaella Franci. Giochi matematici in trattati d'abaco del medioevo e del rinascimento. Atti del Convegno Nazionale sui Giochi Creative, Siena, 11-14 Jun 1981. Tipografia Senese for GIOCREA (Società Italiana Giochi Creativi), 1981. Pp. 18-43. Describes and quotes many typical problems. 17 references, several previously unknown to me.
Heinrich Hermelink. Arabische Unterhaltungsmathematik als Spiegel Jahrtausendealter Kulturbeziehungen zwischen Ost und West. Janus 65 (1978) 105-117, with English summary. An English translation appeared as: Arabic recreational mathematics as a mirror of age-old cultural relations between Eastern and Western civilizations; in: Ahmad Y. Al-Hassan, Ghada Karmi & Nizar Namnum, eds.; Proceedings of the First International Symposium for the History of Arabic Science, April 1976 -- Vol. Two: Papers in European Languages; Institute for the History of Arabic Science, Aleppo, 1978, pp. 44-52. (There are a few translation and typographical errors, which make it clear that the English version is a translation of the German.)
D. E. Smith. On the origin of certain typical problems. AMM 24 (1917) 64 71. (This is mostly contained in his History, vol. II, pp. 536 548.)
