|  | The History of Tur Abdin by
Until now this first insider-history of Tur Abdin has been unavailable to non-Semitic readers. Written by Patriarch Ignatius Aphram Barsoum in Syriac, this history of the mountainous region in southeastern Asia Minor called Tur Abdin has not found wide readership because of language barriers. This new edition produced by Gorgias Press is a trilingual edition: the original Syriac, and Arabic and English translations. |
|  | The Bible in the Syriac Tradition (English Version) by
This is a basic introduction to the various Syriac translations of the Bible and the ways in which they were used in the Syriac tradition. After an initial discussion of the general problems of biblical translation, the different surviving Syriac translations are outlined, as well as biblical manuscripts, lectionaires, printed editions, and translations. A reception history of the Syriac Bible covers the ways in which it has been interpreted, the commentary tradition, its use in preaching, in liturgy, and in spirituality. An appendix offers some comparative samples (in translation) to illustrate some of the differences between the different Syriac translations. |

The Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage is the first major Syriac encyclopedia, covering approximately 600 articles. It is part of a larger long-term project aiming at publishing a comprehensive encyclopedia of the Syriac heritage. A team of leading Syriac scholars have contributed to the encyclopedia, under the General Editorship of Dr. George Anton Kiraz. The Encyclopedia covers the Syriac heritage in its entirety from the dawn of Christianity until the modern day. The importance of such an encyclopedia need not be emphasized. Until this day, encyclopedic knowledge about the Syriac heritage has been obscured in various other encyclopedias on related topics. An encyclopedia for the complex field of Syriac studies has been sorely needed, and the Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage rises to the challenge. | |
