AHPG849: Voices from Coptic Egypt |
This unit will introduce students to the wealth of texts from Late Antique and Medieval Egypt written in Coptic, both original and translated: religious text such as biblical and non-canonical text in the Coptic translations, saints' lives, sermons or theological treatises, but also text reflecting the spiritual and personal interests of the individual such as magical and medical texts, personal letters, contracts and tax documents. Knowledge of the Coptic language is not necessary for this unit, as original texts will be studies in translation.
