Description

This specialized index provides a deep look into the work of Sergius of Reshaina (d. 536), who translated the (pseudo-)Aristotelian text De Mundo from Greek into Syriac during the early sixth century. Because Sergius worked during a transitional era in translation history, his specific style serves as a vital link for researchers. Early Greek-Syriac translations often used freer versions, whereas later seventh-century examples moved toward literalism. By studying the work of Sergius, scholars can observe the evolution of these linguistic methods. This volume is a necessary resource for anyone studying the history of translation, the development of Syriac literature, or the transmission of Greek philosophical texts. It offers the precise data needed to navigate the complexities of this specific historical period and the linguistic shifts that occurred between the early and late translation eras.
