ISBN: 0970059140 ISBN-13: 9780970059147 Publisher: American Society of Papyrologists OUR PRICE: $19.75 Product Type: Paperback Published: January 2001 Annotation: The primary purpose of the Checklist is to provide for scholars and librarians a ready bibliography of all monographic volumes, both current and out-of-print, of Greek, Latin, Demotic and Coptic texts on papyrus, parchment, ostraca or wood tablets. A secondary purpose of the original checklist (published in 1974) was to establish a standard list of abbreviations for editions of Greek texts. Now that this has been largely achieved, this edition aims to expand standardized abbreviations to cover Coptic and Demotic material. In general, this volume offers more complete coverage of demotic material than ever attempted before; especially valuable since this is a growing area of study which lacks such bibliographic resources. |
