[1] It is my
pleasure to welcome a new member to the staff of Hugoye.
Kristian S. Heal of Brigham Young University accepted an
invitation to serve as Hugoye Book Review Editor. The
position has thus far been occupied by Dr. Monica Blanchard of
The Catholic University of America.
[2] Kristian
S. Heal joined the Institute for the Study and Preservation of
Ancient Religious texts at BYU as a Research Associate in 2000.
He is the coordinator of the Eastern Christian Digitizing
Initiative and Associate Editor of the Eastern Christian Texts
series. He received his bachelor's degree in Jewish History and
Hebrew from University College, London and continued his
education at the University of Oxford where he took a master's
degree in Syriac Studies. He is currently undertaking research
for his doctoral dissertation at the University of Birmingham.
His research is focused on the Syriac exegetical tradition,
with a particular emphasis on the figure of the Old Testament
Patriarch Joseph (Genesis 37-50) in early Syriac literature.
Kristian and his wife Vicki-Bronwen are the parents of five
children.
[3] Dr.
Monica Blanchard continues to contribute to Beth Mardutho's
various projects, especially The Syriac Digital Library project
where she acts as the librarian liaison between Beth Mardutho
