These captivating
Coptic Popular Tales from Ottoman Egypt
delve into the lives of a Coptic priest, Nuṣayr, and his son Murqus, exploring religious duties, morality, and family dynamics. Unlike mainstream Ottoman literature, they offer a glimpse into Coptic society, discussing fasting, wealth, and societal norms. Through vivid narrative and biblical wisdom, the tales enrich theological studies and historical understanding, shedding light on the complexities of Coptic communal identity. Authored by an unknown Coptic clergyman, they stand as a testament to the intellectual and cultural vitality of eighteenth-century Egypt. From religious doctrines to everyday life, the tales offer a comprehensive view of Coptic history and tradition, serving as both literary treasures and pastoral guidance amidst external influences and internal transformations.
