It-Tfittxija għal Pawlu: Mill-iskritura għat-tradizzjoni, arkeoloġija u l-pajsaġġ Malti
L-għarqa tal-ġifen tal-Appostlu Pawlu, kif irrakkontata fl-Atti tal-Appostli, hija waħda mill-aktar narrattivi marittimi komprensivi mill-antikità. Lil hinn mis-sinifikat teoloġiku tagħha, toffri ġrajja rari u personali ta’ diżastru marittimu fil-Mediterran tal-qedem. B’kuntrast mal-biċċa l-kbira tal-iġfna mgħerrqa ta’ dak il-perjodu, it-telfa tal-ġifen li fuqu kien qed jivvjaġġa Pawlu mhix siekta iżda spjegata permezz tal-osservazzjonijiet ta’ xhud okulari. Din il-perspettiva unika tagħmel l-istudju tal-għarqa tal-ġifen ta’ Pawlu bħala suġġett ta’ interess dejjiemi, kemm għal dawk li jistudjaw l-istorja marittima u l-arkeoloġija, kif ukoll it-teoloġija.

Searching For Paul: from scripture to tradition, archaeology and the Maltese landscape
The shipwreck of the Apostle Paul, as recounted in the Acts of the Apostles, stands as one of the most comprehensive maritime narratives from antiquity. Beyond its theological significance, it offers a rare, first-person account of a maritime disaster in the ancient Mediterranean. Unlike most shipwrecks from the period, the loss of the ship he was travelling on is not silent but elucidated by the observations of an eyewitness. This unique perspective makes the study of Paul’s shipwreck a subject of enduring interest to scholars of maritime history, archaeology, and theology alike.
