The political and linguistic distance of the Syriac tradition from the Greek and Latin traditions allowed the development of unique views and practices of spirituality in Syriac speaking Christianity. In the present volume, Sebastian Brock provides an overview of the distinct features of spirituality in the Syriac tradition evident in Syriac literature. Brock begins with general discussions of Syriac spirituality, including major themes, and then provides a series of excerpts from the Syriac tradition that exhibit the Syriac view of spirituality. The excerpts range from early writings, such as the Odes of Solomon, Aphrahat, and Ephrem to later writers like Isaac of Niniveh and Gregory Bar Hebraeus. | |
