Bøker i Gorgias Eastern Christian Studies-serien

Gigineishvili's study is a comprehensive exposition of the philosophical system of twelfth-century Georgian Christian Neoplatonist philosopher Ioane Petritsi. The translation needed the creation of a philosophic language-a medium for transmitting the extravagant philosophic ideas into Georgian-which Petritsi effectively achieved.

Explores the potential insights provided by a distinct tradition of biblical interpretation that has its roots in both the patristic School of Antioch and in the Syriac Fathers, such as Ephrem and Jacob of Sarug, and which has survived and developed in the Churches of the Antiochene Patrimony, such as the Maronite and Syriac.

This volume contains papers from the First International Congress on Eastern Christianity held in Cordoba, Spain, November 2005. The encounter of medieval Christian writers with several linguistic traditions through the Middle Ages produced one of the most important branches of Middle Eastern literature.
