Publisher's Synopsis
This new type of a dictionary of the Greek words in the Coptic documentary texts is based on the relevant editions. It is both an aid for the edition of Coptic texts and can also indicate semantic and phonological shifts compared with Byzantine Greek, and is thus of interest to Byzantine scholars as well. This dictionary offers a long overdue tool for academic research. As Coptic is often described as the language of Christian Egypt, the dictionary is also important for theologians.
