Syrians and the others

"This volume contains the first editions of a number of works of Syrian authors (in Syriac and Arabic) including two excerpts from John bar Penkaye’s 'Ktaba de-resh melle', an excerpt from 'The Blessed Compendium' of Jirjis al-Makin ibn al-Amid, an excerpt from the 'Kitab al-Majdal', and hymns from the 'Warda' collection, as well as a publication of a series of Coptic prayers for travellers. It also contains a discussion of the letters of Nicetas Stethatos available only in Georgian. Other contributions deal with the hagiography (Byzantine, Old Russian, and Syrian, with a special attention to the so-called 'verbal hagiography' which is an intermediary field between the written hagiography and the folklore) and the patrology (with a special attention to philosophical problems of Byzantine patristics). Some detailed book reviews discuss, among others, various problems of the late Byzantine and the 19th- and 20th-century Ethiopian and Russian theology."--
