It’s important for Biblical studies, for late antiquity, for the beginnings of Islam, for philosophy… but Syriac must also be important for Syriac! Dr. George Kiraz

Description

Dr. George Anton Kiraz is one of the foremost scholars of Syriac — an ancient Aramaic language used in some branches of Eastern Christianity. He is the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Gorgias Press and a senior research associate at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University, as well as an ordained deacon in the Syriac Orthodox Church. Dr. Kiraz's books include A Computer-Generated Concordance to the Syriac New Testament; a Comparative Edition of the Syriac Gospels; a Grammar and a Primer of the Syriac Language; and also a book about his father entitled Anton Kiraz’s Archive on the Dead Sea Scrolls. Join us in this exploration of the Syriac Peshitta (Bible versions), the importance of Syriac for many fields of knowledge, and other questions about Dr. Kiraz's life and work.
