Download or read book Ancient Christian Magic written by Marvin W. Meyer and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1999-04-04 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thought-provoking collection of magical texts from ancient Egypt shows the exotic rituals, esoteric healing practices, and incantatory and supernatural dimensions that flowered in early Christianity. These remarkable Christian magical texts include curses, spells of protection from "headless powers" and evil spirits, spells invoking thunderous powers, descriptions of fire baptism, and even recipes from a magical "cookbook." Virtually all the texts are by Coptic Christians, and they date from about the 1st-12th centuries of the common era, with the majority from late antiquity. By placing these rarely seen texts in historical context and discussing their significance, the authors explore the place of healing, prayer, miracles, and magic in the early Christian experience, and expand our understanding of Christianity and Gnosticism as a vital folk religion.

Download or read book Traditions in Transmission written by Michael W. Zellmann-Rohrer and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-02-21 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a re-edition and detailed study of a parchment codex from Egypt of the fourth century CE with Greek and Coptic recipes for healing through magic and pharmacology (Ann Arbor, University of Michigan Library Ms. 136). A text and annotated translation were published in a brief journal article by William H. Worrell in 1935, but the codex has been understudied since then. This new edition offers advances in readings and interpretation, a thorough philological commentary, and accompanying studies on the ritual and medical traditions to which the codex belongs and its position in the linguistic landscape of Egypt. The recipes comprise magical rituals for healing and broader personal advancement, pharmacological and related medical recipes, and advice for the management of a household. Traditional Egyptian religion and ritual are illustrated in interaction with medical practices of Hellenic culture more recently introduced to Egypt, and the archaic, even poetic language of some of the Coptic invocations featuring the Egyptian gods Amun and Thoth share pages with an incantation constructed from the verses of Homer.

Book An English Coptic Psalter and Agpeya

Download or read book An English Coptic Psalter and Agpeya written by Edward I Rizkalla and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-09 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the complete Book of the Psalms, a Contemporary Prayer Book of the Hours, called the Agpeya in the Coptic language, and a few select Doxologies. The text is presented in both English and the Bohairic dialect of the Coptic language, according to the traditions of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, Egypt. The Coptic language is in fact the last stage of the ancient Egyptian language. The English text presented is the equivalent available English text of the Coptic. The Prayer Book of the Hours, the Agpeya, is primarily based on selections of the Psalms, appropriate selections of the New Testament Gospel readings, and some hymns of praise. The presentation of the Agpeya Prayers accordingly refers to the psalms already included in the Book of the Psalms. The editor and scribe of the book, has strived to use scientific methods of enquiry to the maximum extent possible to come up with Coptic text. He used reliable sources based on available primary sources, and compared it directly with primary sources to obtain an accurate text. As ancient texts were written mostly without spacing between the words and without the aid of modern punctuation marks, the editor has attempted to present the Coptic text using punctuation marks, as used in American English.
