Description

Explore a vital chapter of Middle Eastern history with The Torches of Edessa: Establishment - Development 1924-2004. This scholarly work by Sara Doghramji tracks the journey of the Syrian Orthodox community following their expulsion from Edessa in 1924 and their subsequent resettlement in Aleppo. This book details the founding of a dedicated school designed to preserve the community's identity through the teaching of the Syriac language, liturgical melodies, and essential prayers. Readers will follow the evolution of this institution from its beginnings in 1927 to its modern identity as the Bani Taghlib school. Part of the Dar Mardin: Christian Arabic and Syriac Studies series, this text provides a deep look into the cultural and religious preservation efforts of a community in transition. It is an essential resource for those interested in Orthodox studies, Syriac heritage, and the history of Christian communities in the Middle East.
