Like many works in the genre of fable literature, the tale of Sindban and the seven wise masters is represented in several languages by a somewhat complicated textual history. There are versions in Arabic (two recensions), Syriac, Greek, Hebrew, Spanish, and Pahlavi. This volume is Baethgen’s dissertation from the University of Leipzig, in which he presents the Syriac text, based on the only manuscript of the work (from Berlin), along with a German translation and an introduction. The Syriac text has a small number of textual notes, while the translation is annotated with observations on the language of the Syriac text and its connections to the other versions of the tale.

Sixth-Century Fragments of an East-Syrian Anaphora

Although this fragmentary Eastern Syriac Anaphora was previously published by G. Bickell, R.H. Connolly disagreed with several editorial and conjectural decisions. Thus, Connolly publishes here his own edited version of the text accompanied by a Latin translation and extended notes.

Marriage and the Sacraments

Originally delivered as one of the St. Margaret’s Lectures for 1904, the contents of this booklet are focused on aspects of the Syriac-speaking Church. Extracted from Burkitt’s book Early Eastern Christianity, the fourth lecture concerns the development of marriage and the role of sacraments in the early Syriac Church. Burkitt finds that marriage was not early regarded as a sacrament and the married faithful were not permitted the sacraments of baptism or communion in the early tradition represented by Aphraates.
