Twee zevende-eeuwse bisschoppen aan het werk: hun sociale rol in de Thebaanse regio

Article / Letter to editor

This article, written for a wide audience in Dutch, provides a summary of the author's PhD dissertation, Episcopal Networks and Authority in Late Antique Egypt (defended in November 2017, published by Peeters in Leuven in 2018), on seventh-century bishops who represented a new church hierarchy and were organizing it on a local level. This hierarchy is the forerunner of the present-day Coptic Orthodox Church.
