Zusammenfassung: | Saint Bishoi of Scetis (d. ca. 417) enjoys tremendous popularity throughout the Christian east, particularly among the Copts. He lived during a remarkable era in which a litany of larger-than-life monastics lived and interacted with one another. Even then, Bishoi stood out as the founder of one of the four great monasteries of Scetis (Wadi al-Natrun): those of Macarius, John the Little, Bishoi, and the Baramus. In spite of Bishoi's prominence, the various recensions of his hagio-biography have received sporadic, scattered attention. This definitive volume contains the first English translation of the Greek, Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic Lives of Bishoi, each translation accompanied by an introduction that focuses on certain aspects of the source text. It also has the first transcription and English translation of an important early Greek text. The General Introduction provides rich context about the texts and textual traditions in the various languages, and thoroughly revises our knowledge about the Syriac tradition, the translation of the Syriac text here now consequently providing what is the best translation in any modern language.-- |

spelling | The life of Bishoi : the Greek, Arabic, Syriac, and Ethiopic Lives / edited by Tim Vivian and Maged S. A. Mikhail ; contributors, Apostolos N. Athanassakis, Rowan A. Greer, Robert Kitchen, Maged S. A. Mikhail, and Tim Vivian ; preface by Mark N. Swanson. Cairo, Egypt ; New York, NY : The American University in Cairo Press, 2022. ©2022 1 online resource (unpaged) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and indexes. English translations of Greek, Arabic, Syriac, and Ethiopic texts ; one text in Greek. Saint Bishoi of Scetis (d. ca. 417) enjoys tremendous popularity throughout the Christian east, particularly among the Copts. He lived during a remarkable era in which a litany of larger-than-life monastics lived and interacted with one another. Even then, Bishoi stood out as the founder of one of the four great monasteries of Scetis (Wadi al-Natrun): those of Macarius, John the Little, Bishoi, and the Baramus. In spite of Bishoi's prominence, the various recensions of his hagio-biography have received sporadic, scattered attention. This definitive volume contains the first English translation of the Greek, Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic Lives of Bishoi, each translation accompanied by an introduction that focuses on certain aspects of the source text. It also has the first transcription and English translation of an important early Greek text. The General Introduction provides rich context about the texts and textual traditions in the various languages, and thoroughly revises our knowledge about the Syriac tradition, the translation of the Syriac text here now consequently providing what is the best translation in any modern language.-- Provided by publisher.
