- Title
THE CHRISTIAN LIBRARY FROM TURFAN: SYR HT 41-42-43 AN EARLY EXEMPLAR OF THE ḤUDRĀ.
- Authors
HUNTER, ERICA C. D.
- Abstract
Syr HT 414243 are three bifolia from the Ḥuḏrā (on the Annunciation and the Nativity) that are part of the archive of Syriac fragments firming the Christian Library at Turfan. Dated to the twelfth century, the bifolia are amongst the earliest exemplars of the Ḥuḏrā. Their text exhibits many differences from the later sixteenth century manuscripts that firmed the basis of the printed editions of the Ḥuḏrā and sheds insight onto the transmission of the early East Syrian liturgical tradition at a time when the division between the Ḥuḏrā and Gazzā had not yet taken place.
