Abstract

The article discusses the edited volume "Iranianate and Syriac Christianity in Late Antiquity and the Early Islamic Period" by Chiara Barbati and Vittorio Berti, which explores the history of Christianity in late antique and early Islamic Iran and Central Asia. The volume covers a wide range of topics, from conversion to Christian-Zoroastrian relations under Sasanian rule, to the spread of Christianity to India by merchant settlers from the Sasanian Empire. The articles in the volume offer nuanced analyses of various aspects of Iranianate and Syriac Christianity, providing valuable insights for scholars interested in this field of study.
