On This Day: February
The new book’s cover

 

I was pleased to find, in my office mailbox this afternoon, two copies of a new dual-language Armenian/English book, On This Day: The Armenian Church Synaxarion: February, translated by Edward G. Mathews, Jr., of St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary in New York.

 

This is the latest publication from BYU’s Middle Eastern Texts Initiative (METI), which I conceived and founded.  Specifically, it’s from METI’s series of Eastern Christian Texts.

 

One of the non-negotiable demands that I made, when I finally recognized the totality of my purge from the Maxwell Institute (where I had, in retrospect rather stupidly, decided to house my translation project), was that I be given two copies of every new METI publication when it appeared.  My dean backed me on that, and so, from time to time, I receive a pleasant gift via campus mail.
