A Handbook of the Coptic Authors through the Tenth Century

虽然世界各地的许多大学都有科普特研究系或在这一领域开设讲座，但没有关于科普特作者及其文学作品的词典或手册。该项目(十世纪科普特作家手册)旨在填补这一空白，编写一本研究科普特作家在这一时期生活的手册，并讨论他们的文学作品。那些原创语言仍不确定的作者的科普特文学作品也将被包括在内。这本手册的每个条目都由两部分组成：第一部分报道了作者的生平和时间，并提供了关于他的个人的资料和参考资料。第二部分讨论了个别作者的文学作品，并列出了讨论的作品的手稿、版本、现代翻译和参考文献。手册将按字母顺序排列，包括许多索引，以便于根据不同的标准进行搜索。

Although many universities worldwide have a department of Coptic Studies or give lectures in this field there is no lexicon or handbook of the Coptic authors and their literary work. The project (A Handbook of Coptic Authors through the Tenth Century) aims to fill this lacuna and to produce a handbook in which Coptic authors lived in this period are studied and their literary works are discussed. Coptic literary works of those authors whose original language are still uncertain will also be included. Every entry in this handbook consists of two parts: Part one reports on the life and time of the author and gives sources and references about his person.Part two discusses the literary works of the individual authors and lists manuscripts, editions, modern translations and references of the discussed work.The handbook will be arranged alphabetic and include numerous indices which facility the search according to various criteria.
