Edition and translation of the Arabic Synaxarium for the twelve months of the Coptic year on the basis of the oldest surviving manuscripts.

该Synaxarium是，旁边的Difnar，中央礼仪书的科普特（埃及）教会。直到今天，Synaxariums文本仍然在科普特人的礼拜仪式中占有稳固的地位，科普特人是东方最大的基督教社区之一。通过这种方式，在雅阁与悠久的传统，科普特人纪念这样的人圣徒，烈士，使徒等，一方面，但另一方面也在科普特教会的历史和圣经传统的重要事件。当地的圣徒出现在这里，与众所周知的人一起，他们在基督教传统中被普遍尊为圣徒：圣经人物，如耶稣，玛丽或使徒，以及重要的历史人物，如君士坦丁大帝。在这方面，Synaxarium清楚地显示了一个纲要，其起源被认为是属于在早期的一部分，第十三世纪，但经历了修订的过程中的时间特点。作为一个hagiographical来源，Synaxarium是今天的不可估量的价值，特别是作为一个补充或替代早期烈士的传说，不再生存，无论是在科普特语或阿拉伯语，并从其中Synaxarium的编译器提请他们的一些材料。这里提出的项目的目标是在现存最古老的、尚未出版的包含下埃及校订的手稿的基础上，为科普特礼仪年的12个月（从图坦卡门到米斯拉（加上Nasi，小月份））制作一个新版本的Synaxarium阿拉伯语文本，并通过这种方式填补这项工作的科学调查的空白。新版本被认为是最后的主要版本的初步工作。作为新版本的基础，我将使用一份世纪的手稿（现在在开罗科普特博物馆），并在一个设备，我将整理十个额外的手稿（五个从十四和十五世纪，四个从十八世纪，一个从十九世纪开始），以及一些片段说，日期从十三和十四世纪;这些手稿大多尚未以任何形式出版。开始，计划将该版本作为在线出版物。将根据阿拉伯文本编写德文译本，并以印刷品形式出版。

The Synaxarium is, alongside the Difnar, the central liturgical book of the Coptic (Egyptian) Church. Still today, the Synaxariums texts have a firm place in the worship services of the Copts, who are one of the largest Christian communities of the Orient. By this means, in accord with a long tradition, the Copts commemorate such persons as saints, martyrs, apostles, etc. on the one hand, but on the other hand also important events in the history of the Coptic Church and in the biblical tradition. Local saints appear here alongside well known persons who are universally revered as saints in the Christian tradition: biblical figures such as Jesus, Mary, or the apostles, as well as significant historical personalities like the Emperor Constantine. In this respect, the Synaxarium clearly displays characteristics of a compendium, whose origin is believed to belong in the early part of the thirteenth century, but which underwent revision in the course of time. As a hagiographical source, the Synaxarium is today of inestimable value, especially as a supplement to or substitute for early martyrs legends that no longer survive, neither in Coptic nor in Arabic, and from which the compilers of the Synaxarium drew some of their material. The goal of the project that is proposed here is to produce a new edition of the Arabic text of the Synaxarium for the twelve months of the Coptic liturgical year, from Tut through Misra (plus Nasi, the little month), on the basis of the oldest surviving and as yet unpublished manuscripts which contain the Lower Egyptian recension, and by this means to fill a gap in the scientific investigation of this work. The new edition is conceived of as preliminary work for an eventual editio maior. As the basis for the new edition, I will use a manuscript from the fourteenth century (now in the Coptic Museum in Cairo), and in an apparatus I will collate ten additional manuscripts (five from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, four from the eighteenth century, and one from the beginning of the nineteenth century), as well as a number of fragments said to date from the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries; most of these manuscripts have not yet been published in any form. To begin with, the edition is planned to be an online publication. A German translation will be prepared on the basis of the Arabic text and will be published in printed form.
