The Chronicle of John of Nikiu

Coping with Crisis in Post-Roman Egypt

Description

"In this seminal contribution, Felege-Selam Solomon Yirga offers a valuable, insightful, and thought-provoking analysis of the Chronicle both as a structured narrative and as an intellectual response to the shifting realities of late antique Egypt."--Daria Elagina, University of Münster "Yirga proposes a new interpretation of a peculiar historiographical work composed on the borders between two eras and two worlds--the late Roman Empire and the Arab domination--demonstrating how old mental structures were confronted with a new and plural political and religious world. A noteworthy contribution."--Alberto Camplani, Sapienza University of Rome
