Abstract

Although barbarians in history is a topic of perennial interest, most studies have addressed a small number of groups for which continuous narratives can be constructed, such as the Franks, Goths, and Anglo-Saxons. This volume examines groups less accessible in the literary and archaeological evidence. Scholars from thirteen countries examine the history and archaeology of groups for whom literary evidence is too scant to contribute to current theoretical debates about ethnicity. Ranging from the Baltic and northern Caucasus to Spain and North Africa and over a time period from 300 to 900, the essays address three main themes. Why is a given barbarian group neglected? How much can we know about a group and in what ways can we bring up this information? What sorts of future research are necessary to extend or fill out our understanding? Some papers treat these questions organically. Others use case studies to establish what we know and how we can ad'ance. Drawing on those separate lines of research, the conclusion proposes an alternative reading of Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages, viewed not from the 'centre' of the privileged but from the 'periphery' of the neglected groups. Neglected Barbarians covers a longer time span than similar studies of this kind, while its frequent use of the newest archaeological evidence has no parallel in any book so far published in any language

Abstract

"Scholars and colleagues of Sarah Clackson honored her memory through a two-day symposium, "The Administration of Monastic Estates in Late Antique and Early Islamic Egypt," held at Christ Church, Oxford, 25-26 September 2004. This rich and varied volume presents the papers given at that symposium, plus four additional ones. The foreword presents a complete bibliography for Sarah Clackson and an essay examining her formative role in Coptic Studies up to the time of her premature death. The contributions consist of editions of previously unpublished ostraca and papyri, or of revised and expanded editions of previously published items (O. Clackson 1-34 and P. Clackson 35-50), and nine essays addressing socio-economic and religious issues that impacted the monastic communities of Egypt during Late Antiquity and the Early Islamic period. The volume concludes with the requisite indices: for the ostraca and papyri, indices nominum, rerum, et verborum, and a general index of topics for the commentaries on documents and the essays. Black-and-white images are provided for the ostraca and papyri."--Books.google.

Abstract

Unter „koptischer Literatur“ versteht man literarische Schriften, die in koptischer Sprache verfasst oder ins Koptische übertragen wurden. Nur ein Teil dieses literarischen Corpus kann einem Autor zugeschrieben werden. Die übrigen Schriften wurden entweder anonym überliefert oder sind nur fragmentarisch erhalten, weswegen der Name des Autors oft verloren gegangen ist. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Vorstellung ägyptischer Autoren des ersten Jahrtausends, denen ein koptisches literarisches Werk zugeschrieben wird. In einem Anhang werden koptische Schriften aufgelistet, die den Erzbischöfen von Alexandrien in diesem Zeitraum zugeschrieben werden. Bis jetzt mangelt es in der Koptologie an einem Nachschlagewerk für die koptische Literatur im Allgemeinen. Mit dieser Arbeit soll ein kleiner Teil dieser Lücke geschlossen werden. Sie richtet sich an jegliche Leser, die sich einen schnellen Überblick über einen bestimmten koptischen Autor oder eines seiner Werke verschaffen wollen. Der Inhalt ist zwar zusammenfassend, jedoch bietet er ausreichende Quellen und Literatur für weitergehende Untersuchungen.
