The People and the Peoples: Syriac Dialogue Poems from Late Antiquity

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the dialogue between religious figures, this book presents critical editions and annotated English translations of four anonymous Syriac dialogue poems. Each poem features distinct protagonists, such as the Synagogue and Church or Jesus and the Pharisees. The texts are based on the oldest manuscripts, correcting earlier editions that relied on corrupt sources. The work aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of these dialogues, which have previously been published for a limited audience.
