Dear Colleagues,
the newly found (so-called) Caucasian Albanian Palimpsests [manuscripts
stemming from the 6.-7. century AD] have now been fully deciphered,
translated and edited by Jost Gippert, Wolfgang Schulze, Zaza Aleksidze,
and Jean-Pierre Mahé. The two volumes (in 4to format, 650 pages) include
a presentation of Caucasian Albanian, a full grammar of the language of
the texts (including remarks on minor inscriptions, language history
etc.), an editio minor of the texts (Gospel of John, Lectionary) for
quick reference, indices and concordances (Caucasian Albanian/Old
Armenian/Old Georgian/Russian/English/Udi), and (in the second volume)
the editio princeps with photographs of the single parchment sheets,
facsimiles, transliteration, and parallel texts in Armenian; Georgian,
Russian, Syriac, English, and Udi.
The two volumes are going to be published at Brépols (Turnhout,
Belgium), see
http://www.brepols.net/catalogue/index.jsp?mpk=20295&art=875817 ). The
publisher expects a relevant number of orders before starting to print
the volumes (that shall appear this year in spring). In case libraries
or individuals are interested in ordering the two volumes they are
kindly invited to follow the link mentioned above.
Very best wishes,
Wolfgang
