English summary: For good reason, this publication in honor of Peter Nagel's 80th birthday forms the first volume of the new series Texts and Studies on the Coptic Bible , as Peter Nagel is one of the foremost specialists on the tradition of the Coptic Old Testament, whose most important fields of activity include research into the Coptic language and the culture and religion of Late Antiquity and Byzantine to early Islamic Egypt. In 22 contributions, students and colleagues of the honoree reflect not only the Coptological core topics of his work, but the entire range of his scientific interests, which also include the languages and cultures of the Christian Orient, especially in Syria, Nubia, and Ethiopia, as well as Pharaonic Egypt. Four contributions lead the reader into modern times and the present, thus rounding off the volume. German description: Aus gutem Grund bildet die Festschrift zu Ehren von Peter Nagels 80. Geburtstag den Auftakt fur die neue Reihe Texte und Studien zur Koptischen Bibel, denn Peter Nagel ist einer der bedeutendsten Spezialisten fur die Uberlieferung des koptischen Alten Testaments, zu dessen wichtigsten Wirkungsfeldern die Erforschung der koptischen Sprache und der Kultur und Religion des spatantiken und byzantinisch-fruhislamischen Agypten zahlen. In 22 Beitragen spiegeln Schuler und Kollegen des Jubilars nicht nur die koptologischen Schwerpunkte seiner Tatigkeit, sondern die gesamte Spannbreite seiner wissenschaftlichen Interessen, die auch die Sprachen und Kulturen des christlichen Orients namentlich in Syrien, Nubien und Athiopien sowie das pharaonische Agypten einschliessen. Vier Beitrage zur Geschichte und Forschungsgeschichte des christlichen Orients fuhren den Leser bis hinein in die Neuzeit und Gegenwart und runden so die Festgabe zu einem umfassenden Einblick in ein breites Forschungsspektrum ab, das durch das wissenschaftliche Lebenswerk Peter Nagels nachhaltig gepragt wurde.
