The Multilingual Experience in Egypt, from the Ptolemies to the Abbasids
ISBN: 9781138257344 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For over a millennium and a half, Egypt was home to at least two commonly used languages of communication. Although this situation is by no means exceptional in the ancient and medieval worlds, the wealth of documentary sources preserved by Egypt's papyri makes the country a privileged observation ground for the study of ancient multilingualism. One of the greatest contributions of papyri to this subject is that they capture more linguistic registers than other ancient and medieval sources, since they range from very private documents not meant by their author to be read by future...

Communal Identity and Self-Portrayal in the Worlds of Eastern Christianity, 300-1500
ISBN: 9780754668916 / Angielski / 31-12-2024 Książka dostępna od: 31-12-2024 The Christian communities of the Middle East distinguish themselves through their unique languages, their ethnic identities and their doctrinal stances.

This volume brings together a...

Conversion in Late Antiquity: Christianity, Islam, and Beyond: Papers from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Sawyer Seminar, University of Oxford, 2009-
ISBN: 9781409457381 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The papers in this volume were presented at a Mellon-Sawyer Seminar held at the University of Oxford in 2009-2010, which sought to investigate side by side the two important movements of conversion that frame late antiquity: to Christianity at its start, and to Islam at the other end. Challenging the opposition between the two stereotypes of Islamic conversion as an intrinsically violent process, and Christian conversion as a fundamentally spiritual one, the papers seek to isolate the behaviours and circumstances that made conversion both such a common and such a contested phenomenon.
