SUMMARY:Rostovtzeff Lecture Series Egyptian versus Greek in Late Antique Egypt: The Struggle of Coptic for an Official Status\, I
DTSTART:20170322T220000Z
DTEND:20170322T233000Z
DESCRIPTION:During the first three centuries of its history\, Coptic\,
  the final stage of the Egyptian language written with Greek letters\,
  was only used for literary purposes and private correspondence but no
 t for contracts between individuals\, documents sent by individuals to
  the authorities\, or internal administrative communication—areas in
  which the Greek language had a monopoly. This situation is unique in 
 comparison with what is observed in other provinces of the Roman Empir
 e and cannot be explained by a legal prohibition.
