Despite their centrality to the history of Christianity in the
East, Syriac Christians have generally been excluded from modern
accounts of the faith. Originating from Mesopotamia, Syriac
Christians quickly spread across Eurasia, from Turkey to China,
developing a distinctive and influential form of Christianity that
connected empires. These early Christians wrote in the language of
Syriac, the lingua franca of the late ancient Middle East, and a
dialect of Aramaic, the language of Jesus. Collecting key
foundational Syriac texts from the second to the fourteenth
centuries, this anthology provides unique access to one of the most
intriguing, but least known, branches of the Christian tradition.
