The present study is an overview of the general development of the Syriac liturgical traditions until the end of the 13th century. It traces some of the aspects of the encounter between Syriac Christianity and its surrounding cultural milieu. Literary genres and styles from the Early Jewish, Mesopotamian, Syro-Hellenistic and Arabic cultures were adapted in a process of encounter and inculturation. Along with Judaism, Mesopotamian pre-Christian and non-Christian cultures provided poetry, music and kinetic arts (gestures, movements and processions). The demonstrative piety of Antioch and Edessa has left traces of influence on the early Syriac liturgy. A few pagan and agrarian festivals were adapted, giving a Christian meaning. Throughout its history, Syriac liturgy is characterized by adaptability which is particularly evident in the history of the East Syriac Church in Central Asia and China where the liturgy was adapted to the culture of the nomadic tribes, introducing some unique para-liturgical practices.

Les temps sont mûrs pour définir un nouveau type de comparatisme indo-iranien, qui serait fondé sur une approche globale de littératures pareillement constituées à des fins liturgiques : la védique et la mazdéenne. Telle était la conviction commune aux organisateurs du colloque intitulé 'Aux sources des liturgies indo-iraniennes', qui s?est tenu à l?Université de Liège, les 9 et 10 juin 2016, avec l?appui du Fonds National pour la Recherche Scientifique. Le présent volume, fondé sur les contributions présentées à ce colloque, est destiné à permettre à des indianistes et à des iranistes spécialisés dans ces questions de faire le point sur l?état des connaissances en présence les uns des autres.
