Why this is in the register
Coptica Sorbonensia: textes de la 6e école d'été de papyrologie copte (Paris, Association des Amis du Centre d'Histoire et Civilisation de Byzance, Studia papyrologica et Aegyptiaca parisina 4, 2022). HOLLIS gives the language as 'fre;eng;cop' and describes 45 texts, 'en majorité documentaires (actes juridiques, documents comptables, lettres)' (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Coptica%20Sorbonensia&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 Some contributions are in English, but the volume is a teaching anthology of 45 pieces out of a collection of about 180, not a translation of a defined corpus; there is no continuous English version.
Editions of 45 Coptic texts, mostly documentary — legal acts, accounts and letters from Middle Egypt (the Apa Apollo monastery at Bawit, the Apa Sabinos monastery, villages of the Hermopolite nome) — plus one biblical and one magical text. Useful as a sample of what remains untranslated in the Sorbonne collection.
