Author Description

Revue de l'Orient Chrétien, originally published between 1896 and 1946, is a collection of essays on the Christian East. It covers the Greek, Georgian, Ethiopian, Armenian, Syriac, Coptic and Arabic traditions. Most of the material has not yet been superseded. It contains also many studies in hagiography, apocryphal literature, philology, patristic literature, religious poetry, Church history and theology. This new Gorgias edition gathers the entire collection with introductory material by Françoise Briquel Chatonnet, and full indices by Jimmy Daccache.
