The Torches of Edessa: Establishment - Development 1924-2004 Hardback
by Gregorios Ibrahim, Sara Doghramji
Part of the Dar Mardin: Christian Arabic and Syriac Studies from the Middle East series
Hardback
Description
After the expulsion of the Syrian Orthodox community from Edessa in 1924, they found refuge in Aleppo.
One of the first things the community did upon its settling in Aleppo was found a school where its youth were taught the Syriac language and important melodies and prayers from the liturgy, among other things. This school was the ancestor of the Syrian Orthodox school of Aleppo which is today called by the name of Bani Taghlib, and in this book Sara Doghramji has given us a history of this institution, from its founding in 1927 to the present.
