[1] The
(North American) Syriac Studies Symposium gathers scholars,
researchers, graduate students, and interested public from all
over the world for a three day conference on Syriac studies.
Symposium V will take place in Canada for the first time,
following four successive symposia in the United States:
Providence RI (1991), Washington DC (1995), Notre Dame IN
(1999), and Princeton NJ (2003).
[2]
Preference will be given to papers or sessions that directly
deal with the main theme: The role of Syriac in bridging
antiquity with the medieval Near East, ancient Greece with the
Islamic civilizations, Christianity with the Far East, etc., in
literature, translations, art, architecture and any other
relevant field. Other proposals in the areas of Syriac
literature, Biblical versions, history, art, archaeology, and
theology are also welcome.
[3] As in
the past conferences, the Syriac Studies Symposium will jointly
convene with the International Forum on Syriac Computing. This
forum aims to give those working on computational projects in
Syriac the opportunity to share information. Papers on all
aspects of Syriac computing are welcomed, including: databases
(lexical, bibliographical, catalogues), word processing, fonts,
desktop publishing, critical editions, computer aided
learning/teaching, software and systems.
[4] Please
submit a title and a 250 word abstract if you wish to present a
(20 minute) paper. The submission deadline is 28 February 2007.
If you wish to propose a session, indicate its theme and
participants, and enclose copies of abstracts for the papers.
Send your abstract or proposal electronically at the following
e-mail, csss@chass.utoronto.ca.
