This topic ... is approached here from an interdisciplinary and comparative angle. The International Round Table held at Lyon in 2008 addressed the figure of the musician in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece and Rome from the fourth millennium BC up to the beginnings of Christianity."--Page [4] of cover. :

The Arabic life of Antony attributed to Serapion of Thmuis : cultural memory reinterpreted /
:
In The Arabic Life of Antony Attributed to Serapion of Thmuis , Elizabeth Agaiby demonstrates how the redacted Life of Antony , the "Father of all monks and star of the wilderness", gained widespread acceptance within Egypt shortly after its composition in the 13th century and dominated Coptic liturgical texts on Antony for over 600 years - the influence of which is still felt up to the present day. By providing a first edition and translation, Agaiby demonstrates how the Arabic Life bears witness to the reinterpretation of the religious memory of Antony in the Coptic Orthodox Church.
