Issue No. 15 December 2020
cover

The 15th issue of Abgadiyat (2020), an annual refereed journal issued by the Writing and Scripts Center, affiliated to the Bibliotheca Alexandrina (BA) Academic Research Sector in collaboration with Brill Publishers of the Netherlands, represents the persistency and keenness of the Writing and Scripts Center—whatever the circumstances may be—to gain the trust of the researchers interested in its refereed issues, specialized in the field of scripts and inscriptions studies. The year 2020 has been exceptional on several levels; the whole world had been exposed to an extraordinary epidemic disaster, the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), which had a great impact on work processes worldwide: a matter that required greater efforts to maintain the issuing of Abgadiyat on time.

The 15th issue of Abgadiyat covers a variety of topics and comes in a number of languages, with rich content that carries the message of the BA as a distinguished center in producing and disseminating knowledge. The 15th issue contains a collection of scientific researches approved after strenuous efforts through a scientific review process. The researches came in a variety of foreign languages in order to address the academic community in Egypt and abroad.
