Fur dieses neuartige Woerterbuch der griechischen Woerter in den koptischen dokumentarischen Texten wurden die entsprechenden Editionsbande zugrunde gelegt. Es ist einerseits ein Hilfsmittel fur die Edition koptischer Texte, es kann andererseits Bedeutungs- und Lautverschiebungen gegenuber dem byzantinischen Griechisch aufzeigen und ist so auch von Interesse fur die Byzantinistik. Mit dem Woerterbuch wird ein seit Jahrzehnten als dringliches Forschungsdesiderat bezeichnetes Hilfsmittel zur Verfugung gestellt. Da Koptisch oftmals als Sprache des christlichen AEgyptens bezeichnet wurde, ist dieses Woerterbuch auch fur Theologinnen und Theologen von Bedeutung. Das Woerterbuch wurde im Rahmen eines vom Wissenschaftsfond (FWF) finanzierten Forschungsprojekts in der Papyrussammlung der OEsterreichischen Nationalbibliothek in Wien erstellt. Der Herausgeber ist promovierter Theologe.
