The fourteenth and fifteenth centuries witnessed a rising interest
in Arabic texts describing and explaining the rituals of the Coptic
Church of Egypt. This book provides readers with an English
translation of excerpts from three key texts on the Coptic liturgy
by Abu al-Barakat ibn Kabar, Yuh.anna ibn Sabba', and Pope Gabriel
V. With a scholarly introduction to the works, their authors, and
the Coptic liturgy, as well as a detailed explanatory apparatus,
this volume provides a useful and needed introduction to the
worship tradition of Egypt's Coptic Christians. Presented for the
first time in English, these texts provide valuable points of
comparison to other liturgical commentaries produced elsewhere in
the medieval Christian world.
