Description
Eastern Christianity: A Reader offers a unique collection of significant texts from various Eastern Christian traditions. This volume brings together English translations of Syriac, Armenian, Georgian, Arabic, Coptic, and Ethiopic Christian texts from late antiquity to the early modern period. The translations are accompanied by informative historical introductions, providing context for readers interested in learning about these understudied groups. The result is a valuable resource that expands our understanding of Christian history, making it possible to explore communities beyond Western Christendom. With contributions from an international team of scholars, this book is a boon to both academics and general readers seeking to engage with the diverse linguistic, cultural, and literary traditions of Eastern Christianity.
