About the series
Multi-ethnic Christian communities are amongst the most ancient natives in the Middle East and the wider West Asia region.

While small in numbers relative to global Christianity, these communities have deep historical roots and rich literary and cultural heritage.

These lectures are a continuation of the series on contemporary Eastern Christianity held huring previous terms.
The conveners are: Dr Hratch Tchilingirian and Pembroke Fellow Professor Theo Maarten van Lint.
