S.N.C. Lieu and G. Mikkelsen (eds.), Between Rome and China: History, Religions and Material Culture of the Silk Road, Silk Road Studies XVIII (Turnhout: Brepols, 2016): 147-80. 7 PLACES AND PEOPLES IN CENTRAL ASIA AND IN THE GRAECO-ROMAN NEAR EAST A MULTILINGUAL GAZETTEER FROM SELECT PRE-ISLAMIC SOURCES SAMUEL N. C. LIEU & GUNNER MIKKELSEN Macquarie University (Sydney) A STATED AIM of the SERICA project1 is the provision of maps in both English and Chinese of the Silk Road from Luoyang 洛陽 in China to Antioch-on-the-Orontes in Syria. A major source of place-names for in- clusion in these maps is inscriptions from Palmyra, Iran and the capital cities of China. Work on the inscriptions over the years has led the team to realize their value as sources on place and ethnic names in Central Asia as they often provide researchers with contemporary forms and spel- ling. Some inscriptions, like the famous trilingual (Greek, Middle Persian and Parthian) inscription of Shapur (discovered between 1936 and 1939 and popularly known as the Res Gestae Divi Saporis) at the Ka‘ba-i Zardušt,2 which provides lists of the Sasanian provinces as well as names of Roman cities captured by Shapur I in his successful campaigns, is a major onomasticon in its own right. Systematic collection of onomastic material from the inscriptions had already begun when Sam Lieu com- piled a commentary on the Res Gestae Divi Saporis published in 1994.3 Material has been steadily added to the list over a number of years and 1 On the SERICA project see S. N. C. Lieu, “Da Qin and Fulin” in this volume, pp. 144-145. 2 See now the major edition by P. Huyse, Die dreisprachige Inschrift Šābuhrs I. an der Ka‘ba-i Zardušt (ŠKZ), 2 vols = Corpus Inscriptionum Iranicarum, Pt. III Pahlavi Inscriptions Vol. 1 in 2 parts (London: Corpus Inscriptionum Iranicarum, 1999). 3 M. H. Dodgeon and S. N. C. Lieu, The Roman Eastern Frontier and the Persian Wars AD 226-363, (London, 1991, revised paperback edition 1994), 34 and 50. 148 SAMUEL LIEU AND GUNNER MIKKELSEN the publication by Philip Huyse of the standard edition of the inscription greatly facilitated the work of compilation. Material in this multilingual Gazetteer is organized around the standard forms of the place and ethnic names in English. Thus for Samarkand, one finds the material grouped under Samarkand and not Smarakanse or Maracanda or Samojian or Afrasiab although there will eventually be separate indices to all the ancient and medieval languages represented in the Gazetteer (i.e. Old Iranian, Middle Iranian, Parthian, Sogdian, Greek, Syriac, Chinese etc.). Another major source for the Gazetteer is the historical texts of Manichaean and Nestorian (Church of the East) origin. Like the inscriptions they were contemporary in dating and reflect the pronunciation and systems of transliteration of their time. The fact that they were both universalist religions means that their scribes copied and translated texts which reflected the Middle East at the time of the foundation of these religions.

    Part. IV. Parthes Et Scythes

    Part. IV. Parthes et Scythes L’arrivée en masse d’une vaste confédération de peuples des steppes bouleverse la situation politique en Bactriane peu après la conquête parthe. Elle provoque aussi des mouvements de migration secondaire de groupes scythes, dont certains gagnent le nord-ouest de l’Inde. Ce sont à eux que les Parthes ont désormais à faire à l’est de leur empire. Les sources gréco- romaines n’en connaissent que les épisodes bactriens, qui touchent directement les Parthes, tandis que les textes chinois nous permettent de rendre compte aussi des changements politiques qui se manifestent au nord-ouest de l’Inde. Ces événements nous intéressent ici car les sources gréco-romaines signalent que les Parthes ont reconquis aux dépens des nouveaux venus le territoire de Bactriane qu’ils avaient conquis sur les Grecs, à une date non précisée, mais antérieure au règne de Phraate IV, tandis que des textes chinois évoquent une vaste région du nord-ouest de l’Inde dont les Parthes, après 23 de notre ère, se sont emparés aux dépens des Scythes locaux. Toutes les études réalisées jusqu’à présent ont par ailleurs cherché à rendre compte de la situation politique des régions iraniennes du sud de l’Hindukush telle que l’a décrite Isidore - la frontière établie au-delà de Kandahar, et le groupe de « Sakas scythes » installés dans la courbe méridionale du Hilmend – et à la dater par rapport à ces événements. A. Lignes de tradition écrite 1. Les Parthes et les Scythes de Bactriane dans les sources gréco-romaines 342 La chute du pouvoir grec en Bactriane due à la migration d’une série de peuples scythes venus d’au-delà du Syr Darya est mentionnée à la fois par Strabon, par l’auteur des Prologues à l’œuvre de Trogue-Pompée, et par Justin.

SPINOZA The following pages are the outcome of several prolonged visits to Constantinople, Macedonia, and Asiatic Turkey, covering a period of twelve years, from 1896 to 1908. Several of these were made under exceptional circumstances and embody experiences such as do not often fall to the lot of a traveller, some of which, I venture to think, are of lasting public interest. Anyone who has had personal relations with an autocrat—in this case the spiritual head of a faith in which in the course of centuries thousands of millions of human beings have lived and died—ought to have much to tell worth recounting. There were also the surroundings of the Monarch to be observed. Many a trait of deep human interest presented itself to him who was a privileged visitor: for instance, the ups and downs of fortune as they affected the all- powerful favourite whose good offices-as in the time of a Madame de Pompadour—powerful Sovereigns did not think it beneath their dignity to strive and compete for.

Tous droits réservés 1 NOTE DE LA RÉDACTION Ce numéro triple d'Abstracta Iranica 37-38-39 s'ouvre quelques mois après la clôture du numéro triple 34-35-36. Ce nouveau numéro, qui recense les publications de 2014-2015-2016, est comme le précédent un numéro « ouvert » présentant les recensions reçues depuis plusieurs mois et il restera ouvert jusqu'en décembre 2018, date à laquelle démarrera le numéro suivant. Nous espérons ainsi retrouver notre rythme habituel de publications des recensions en résorbant le retard imposé par des éléments externes et internes à la revue. Dorénavant, le principe de numéro « ouvert » reste valable pour tous les numéros futurs et la mise en ligne sera opérée plusieurs fois par an, par paquet de 100 à 200 comptes rendus. De la sorte les recensions adressées par les contributeurs seront disponibles en ligne quelques mois plus tard. Plus de visibilité et une plus grande rapidité et, par conséquent, une meilleure diffusion devraient refaire d'Abstracta Iranica une référence indispensable de l'information et de la critique de l'ensemble des publications sur le monde iranien.

John’s purpose is to explain God’s dispensation in human history. He offers theological instruction through the medium of historical narrative. Chapter one discusses John’s political and ecclesiastical context. The fifteenth book of Resh Melle illustrates historical events which were contemporary to John. This chapter also discusses the rise of Islam, which had a great impact on the monastic centres and the numerous communities that formed the Church of the East. Chapter two investigates the life, literary works, and importance of the author. The works that have been traditionally attributed to John are discussed and their authenticity assessed. The chapter also discusses John’s importance for modern scholarship in various fields of study, including history, theology, exegesis, liturgy, and asceticism. Chapter three discusses the title, provenance, sources, manuscripts, editions and translations of Resh Melle.
