Much of the Center's work, at both faculty and student levels, impinges inevitably on the Byzantine field. Dr Susan Wessel of the School of Theology and Religious Studies, biographer of Cyril of Alexandria, exemplifies our potential for overlap. CUA is also noted for its scholarship in the Syriac and Coptic spheres, presided over by Professor Sidney Griffith and Dr Janet Timbie. We have a wealth of material in the library of our Institute for Christian Oriental Research, which includes manuscripts, papyri, and ostraka, together with substantial electronic resources. Thanks to the work of the Librarian, Dr Monica Blanchard, and of our visiting Research Fellow, Dr Chrysi Kotsifou, important improvements have been made recently in the conservation, cataloguing, and publication of this material. Our Department of Greek and Latin also has a close interest in the early Christian field, and much of its philological work is directed towards the study of Patristic documents, both Greek and Latin. Finally, our close working relationship with Dumbarton Oaks and other universities in the DC area, and the proximity of the Library of Congress, make CUA an ideal place to pursue research.
Full accounts of faculty research and teaching, together with our other activities, are available on or linked to the Center website: http://csec.cua.edu.
