The vast majority of Syriac sources that have come down to us came from the ecclesiastical and scholarly elite. It was therefore natural for Syriac studies to focus primarily on the doctrines and normative practices promoted by these authors. Within this field of study, another historiographical vein has focused on magic and the occult sciences. ...

Pritula A., , in: The Third Lung: New Trajectories in Syriac Studies. Essays in Honor of Sebastian P. Brock.: Leiden: Brill, 2023. Ch. 3 P. 311–324.
In numerous works by Sebastian Brock, a very detailed typology of Syriac dialogue poetry has been worked out that shows also the stages of its evolution. Most of such poems (sōghīthā, pl. sōghyāthā), being strophic and used for liturgical antiphonal singing, were composed in the 4th-7th centuries. Later on, after the Arabic conquest, the Syriac ...

t is by now widely acknowledged that between late antiquity and the first centuries of Islam, Syriac-speaking Christian communities were more than just scattered minority communities with little impact in geographical areas strongly shaped by the Iranian element. “Iranianate and Syriac Christianity” bridges across different specialized disciplines, first and foremost Iranian Studies and Syriac Studies ...

The article discusses the traditions relating to Adam’s burial in Jerusalem.

The idea of royal charism sometimes took quite paradoxic forms on the Christian East. It was due to the fact that the Christian East was constructed of several cultural and religious clusters, and each of them developed its idea. Syriac world had an ideal model of the true king, and that was Alexander. His image ...

В статье рассматриваются два случая заимствования зороастрийских мифологических мотивов сирийскими христианами. Первый пример, засвидетельствованный впервые в сочинениях Ефрема Сирина (IV в.), касается реинтерпретации традиционного образа библейского Рая как опоясывающей весь мир космической горы, возникшей, по всей вероятности, под влиянием иранских космологических традиций, связанных с горой Албурз. В качестве второго примера обсуждается использование автором анонимного сирийского ...

Chapters gathered in Syriac Hagiography: Texts and Beyond explore a wide range of Syriac hagiographical works, while following two complementary methodological approaches, i.e. literary and cultic, or formal and functional. Grouped into three main sections, these contributions reflect three interrelated ways in which we can read Syriac hagiography and further grasp its characteristics: “Texts as ...

This article deals with the non-biblical tradition about the palace built by King Solomon in the city of Heliopolis/Baalbek in Syria. The earliest attestation of this legend comes from the three Syriac texts dated by the sixth century – the Chronicle of Pseudo-Zachariah, the Ecclesiastical History by John of Ephesus and the Cave of Treasures. ...

The original Syriac composition known as the Cave of Treasures, ascribed to Ephrem the Syrian, presents a peculiar account of Christian sacred history. Due to its idiosyncratic nature, it is not easy to situate this pseudepigraphic work within the multifaceted world of Syriac Christianity of Late Antiquity. This paper carries out a reexamination of some ...
