Welcome to The Comprehensive Bibliography on Syriac Studies

General Editor: Sergey Minov

The Comprehensive Bibliography on Syriac Studies (CBSS) is a multi-lingual catalogue of over 27,000 publications on the topic of Syriac, classified according to more than 1,000 subject headings and topics. CBSS is a growing collection updated annually and the editors welcome the submission of new publications. CBSS is available in multiple formats including a Zotero library, TEI XML, and Linked Open Data so that other digital projects can draw on this bibliography. CBSS builds on a long tradition of scholarly bibliography in Syriac studies including the work of Sebastian Brock and many others. An earlier edition of this bibliography was published by The Center for the Study of Christianity at the Hebrew University as The Comprehensive Bibliography on Syriac Christianity.
