Antoine Guillaumont Explained
Antoine Guillaumont (13 January 1915, L'Arbresle – 25 August 2000) was a French archaeologist and Syriac scholar. He held positions notably at the École pratique des hautes études and the Collège de France, and was a member of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres. His archaeological writings are related to the site of Kellia in Lower Egypt. As a Syriacist he was most interested in early monasticism and in the reception of the writings of Evagrius Ponticus.
From 1954 to 1971, Guillaumont was the editor-in-chief of the academic quarterly Revue de l'histoire des religions, edited by the Collège de France since 1880.[1] During the 1980s.[2] [3] he was also the President of the Ernest Renan Society which was the francophone branch of The International Association for the History of Religions[4]
