Presented by the originator of the famed Mingana Collection of Syrian and Arabic documents, this Syriac edition of the sermons and hymns of Narsai, a prolific "Nestorian" writer of the fifth to sixth centuries, is available to the western world. Many of the works of Narsai have not survived, but those which have are noted for their polished style and elegance. Alphonse Mingana published two volumes of Narsai's extant material, providing an important addition to the corpus of ancient Syriac documents. This current edition represents the most complete publication of Narsai’s writings available.
Alphonse Mingana (1878-1937) was an educator at the Chaldean Seminary in Iraq. He was also a priest in the Assyrian tradition and a collector of ancient manuscripts. He is renowned for his Mingana Collection, a preserved set of nearly 3000 early Syrian and Arabic documents. The published catalogue of this collection is also available from Gorgias Press. Mingana eventually immigrated to England, where he spent 17 years in Manchester continuing his work on Oriental Studies.
