The five sections examine the religion; the material, visual, and literary cultures; the history and social structures of this diverse community; and Syriac interactions with their neighbours ancient and modern. There are also detailed appendices detailing the patriarchs of the different Syriac denominations, and another appendix listing useful online resources for students.    The Syriac World offers the first complete survey of Syriac culture and fills a significant gap in modern scholarship. This volume will be an invaluable resource to undergraduate and postgraduate students of Syriac and Middle Eastern culture from antiquity to the modern era.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish 7aAnthropology2bicssc  acultures  ahistory  areligion  asocial structures  aSyria1 aKing, Daniel4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/3278570zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c92613d92613
