Abstract

The Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage (GEDSH) is the first major encyclopedia-type reference work devoted exclusively to Syriac Christianity, both as a field of scholarly inquiry and as the inheritance of Syriac Christians today. In more than 600 entries it covers the Syriac heritage from its beginnings in the first centuries of the Common Era up to the present day. Special attention is given to authors, literary works, scholars, and locations that are associated with the Classical Syriac tradition. Within this tradition, the diversity of Syriac Christianity is highlighted as well as Syriac Christianity’s broader literary and historical contexts, with major entries devoted to Greek and Arabic authors and more general themes, such as Syriac Christianity’s contacts with Judaism and Islam, and with Armenian, Coptic, Ethiopian, and Georgian Christianities. In addition to the literary tradition, inscriptions and objects of art are given due consideration. The entries are accompanied by 131 illustrations, twenty of which are in color. The volume closes with maps, lists of patriarchs of the main Syriac Churches of the Middle East, and elaborate indices. GEDSH is a collaborative project that involves seventy-six scholars from across the globe. Three of the four editors are associated with major universities in Europe and the United States: Oxford University, Yale University, and Duke University. The fourth editor is the founding director of Beth Mardutho : The Syriac Institute. GEDSH was carried out under the auspices of Beth Mardutho.

Abstract

The study of early Syriac Christianity has for decades been steadily expanding, yet its scope still lags way behind that of research relating to Greek and Latin Christianity. One of the intriguing and understudied topics here is the nature of Syriac Christianity's autonomous identity in late antiquity. This question is intrinsically connected to its genesis from an indigenous Christian Aramaic background as well as its interaction with the neighboring Jewish milieu. This volume unearthes some of the idiosyncracies -- mainly pertaining to trinitarian theology, christology and hermeneutics -- to be found in early Syriac literature before the onslaught of Greek hegemony. The idiosyncrasies analyzed here offer new insights into the nature of that peculiar brand of early Christianity, confirming a model of an indigenous early Syriac tradition gradually entering into a dynamic interaction with Greek influence.

Abstract

Die vorliegenden Bände veröffentlichen die Briefe 1 und 2 des ostsyrischen Patriarchen Timotheos erstmals auf breiter Handschriftenbasis und mit einer Übersetzung in einer modernen Sprache. Diese vergleichsweise langen Texte sind eigentliche Traktate. Brief 1 beschäftigt sich mit der Taufe, insbesondere mit der Frage, ob erneut getauft werden muss, wer von einer anderen Konfession zur ostsyrischen Kirche übertritt. Brief 2 richtet sich an Bokhtisho', den damaligen Oberarzt des Kalifen, und widmet sich der Seele. Beide Texte sind wichtige Dokumente für die Rekonstruktion der damaligen Lehre von der Taufe resp. von der Seele. An Brief 1 ist ein sogenannter Cento angeschlossen, deraus Zitaten von Timotheos zusammengesetzt ist und dessen Tauflehre leicht verschärft. In der Einleitung werden erstmals die ursprüngliche Reihenfolge des Briefcorpus und die mutmasslichen Redaktionsvorgänge rekonstruiert.
