Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The crypt of Archbishop Georgios of Dongola that the team from the Polish Centre of Mediterraean Archaeology of the University of Warsaw, headed then by Stefan Jakobielski, discovered in 1993 was astounding to say the least. The walls were literally covered with writing. Lines close together…, neat small letters the first impression was of something of the greatest importance that the dead man wished to take with him to the other world. Even more astounding was the provisional identification of some of the texts, forcing a complete reevaluation of Makurian culture and Christianity in Africa in the early twelfth century. () Adam Lajtar and Jacques van der Vliet () undertook the task of recording, understanding, and ultimately publishing this astounding selection of texts in Greek and Coptic, this library that Archbishop Georgios endeavored to take with him into the afterworld. These texts are known from several different versions, recorded in different languages, and their attestation in Dongola was quite unexpected.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The volume comprises eight studies on Christian Nubia. Their common denominator is that they are based on written sources generated by the Christian culture of the middle Nile region. Among them are republications and reinterpretations of inscribed materials known for a long time, first edit…ions of textual finds made in the 1990s and 2000s, and more general studies dealing with the history and culture of the Christian Nubian Kingdom of Makuria, its political and social institutions, Church, and literacy. Of special importance are the long chapters about bishops of the Makurian Church and literary education in Christian Nubia, collecting all available source material on these topics and analyzing it against the background of the history and culture of Eastern Christianity. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume presents a series of articles adapted from those read at the 2019 workshop, held in Paris. entitled: "Bishops and Bishoprics in Egypt, Nubia, and Ethiopia (4th-13th centuries)." This collection thus aims to compare the processes of Christianization as well as the relative influen…ces of the anti-Chalcedonian Patriarchate of Alexandria in the Christian institutions of medieval northeast Africa. Contributions explored not only the dynamics of the Alexandrian church in Egypt, but also the lesser-known developments of bishoprics in Nubia and Ethiopia. Regional differences were emphasized as were the relative powers of bishoprics over local governance. Moreover, this volume addresses gaps in our knowledge in the period of Late Antiquity, that is, in the 4th to 6th centuries. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, authors examine the bishoprics of Northeast Africa through the lens of archaeology, history, philology, as well as art history. The resulting volume not only redefines the interconnected Christianities of Egypt, Nubia, and Ethiopia, but also the tensions that informed its medieval character, including, but not limited to issues of local sovereignty as well as the patriarchal authority. This collection aims to compare the processes of Christianization as well as the relative influences of the anti-Chalcedonian Patriarchate of Alexandria in the Christian institutions of medieval northeast Africa.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The book is a publication of nearly one thousand wall inscriptionspreserved in the so-called Upper Church at Banganarti (Sudanese Nubia),discovered by a Polish expedition between 2001 and 2006. In overwhelmingmajority, the inscriptions are mementos left by people who visited thiscult place t…o pay homage to its patron, Archangel Raphael, and to ask himor God through his intermediary for various benefactions. Written ineither Greek or Old Nubian, and frequently displaying a sophisticatedgraphic and literary form, they cast an interesting light on differentaspects of social, cultural, and religious life of the Christian NubianKingdom of Makuria towards the end of its existence (twelfth-fourteenthcenturies). The catalogue of inscriptions is complemented by a studyaddressing general questions provoked by the texts. The book is richlyillustrated with plans, photographs and drawings.
