|  | Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage by Sebastian Brock
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. |

The author, who originally came to India as a missionary for the Free Church of Scotland, here offers a history of Syriac Christianity in all its varieties in India. The first part of the book is mostly concerned with early legends of Christianity in India and St. Thomas, including a look at the problems of identifying what exactly is meant by “India” in the literature of Late Antiquity. He then studies, in turn, the “Nestorian,” Roman, and “Jacobite” presence of Christianity in the region. The last chapter examines questions about the church in India and the changing face of the country as it neared the end of the 19th century. An index of names and subjects concludes the volume. The work will be of interest to all those studying Christianity in India and the spread of Syriac Christianity. | |
