330 .. $a The Christian Sogdian manuscripts in Syriac script which were found at a Central Asian
outpost of the 'Church of the East', the monastery at Bulayïq in the Turfan oasis,
and are now preserved in the Berlin Turfan collection, include a large number of fragments
in a distinctive handwriting which have been catalogued under the designation 'E28'.
Through his choice of texts to translate or to copy the scribe demonstrates his interest
in the practice and traditions of monasticism, originating with St Anthony and the
other 'Desert Fathers', the solitaries and monks of the Egyptian desert, and transplanted
to Mesopotamia and Iran, according to legend, by Mar Awgen (Eugenius). In addition
to works whose Syriac sources have been identified, such as passages from the spiritual
writings of Sem'on d-Taibuteh, Isaac of Nineveh and Dadiso' Qatraya, as well as from
the life of Mar Awgen, 'E28' contains a number of unidentified texts, also no doubt
translated from Syriac, many of which deal with aspects of the ascetic life. This
volume contains an edition and translation of all the texts, most of them previously
unpublished, together with a commentary, glossary and 35 plates. An appendix contains
critical editions of some of the parallel Syriac passages
