Recenzii
- David Brakke, Ohio State University, USA
"This carefully designed collection of essays offers a timely survey of Coptic Christian Egypt from its origins to the uprising of January 2011. Readers embark on a journey through the history of the church and its religious, literary, and artistic culture. Written by scholars from within the tradition, the volume furnishes a much needed, sympathetic introduction to an important and often overlooked branch of Christianity."
- James E. Goehring, University of Mary Washington, USA

- Coptic religious culture: theology, monasticism, spirituality, liturgy and music
- the Coptic language, linguistic expressions of the Coptic heritage and literary production in Greek, Coptic and Arabic .
- material culture and artistic expression of the Copts: from icons, mosaics and frescos to manuscript illuminations, woodwork and textiles.
