Sorry for the misunderstanding. I followed Carolyn Schriber in thinking that you were asking for bibliography when in fact you were offering some. Well, I would be interested in learning more about the Nestorians. I am particularly looking for texts in translation for the students. The course will be on Latin and Byzantine Christianity including Christian Churches in Islamic lands and will cover the period from the seventh to the eleventh century. Thanks for the Pelliot reference.
