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

联神殿是科普特(埃及)教会的中心礼仪书籍，与Difnar并列。时至今日，联会经文仍然在科普特人的礼拜仪式中占有一席之地，科普特人是东方最大的基督教社区之一。通过这种方式，按照悠久的传统，科普特人一方面纪念圣徒、烈士、使徒等人，但另一方面也纪念科普特教会历史上和圣经传统中的重要事件。在这里，当地的圣人与基督教传统中被普遍尊崇为圣人的知名人物一起出现：圣经中的人物，如耶稣、玛丽或使徒，以及像皇帝·君士坦丁这样的重要历史人物。在这方面，合欢室清楚地显示出纲要的特征，其起源被认为属于13世纪早期，但随着时间的推移进行了修订。作为圣徒传记的来源，联轴室今天具有不可估量的价值，特别是作为早期烈士传说的补充或替代，这些传说不再存在，既不是科普特人也不是阿拉伯人，联轴室的编撰者从这些传说中提取了一些他们的材料。该项目的目标是在这里提出的项目是生产的科普特礼仪年十二个月的阿拉伯语文本的新版本，从图坦卡蒙到米斯拉(加上纳西，小月)，在最古老的幸存和尚未出版的手稿其中包含下埃及修订本的基础上，并以此填补了这项工作的科学调查的空白。新版本被认为是最终版本的前期工作。作为新版本的基础，我将使用十四世纪的手稿(现在在开罗的科普特博物馆)，并在一个仪器中整理十份额外的手稿(五份来自十四世纪和十五世纪，四份来自十八世纪，一份来自十九世纪初)，以及一些据说可以追溯到十三世纪和十四世纪的片段；这些手稿大多还没有以任何形式出版。首先，该版本计划成为一种在线出版物。将在阿拉伯文文本的基础上编写德文译文，并将以印刷形式出版。

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liturgical year, from Tut through Misra (plus Nasi, the little month), on the basis of the oldest surviving and as yet unpublished manuscripts which contain the Lower Egyptian recension, and by this means to fill a gap in the scientific investigation of this work.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.
