This book provides an edition, translation and commentary of the three apocryphal gospels of Mary written in Old English.
This book provides an edition, with a facing translation and detailed commentary, of the three apocryphal gospels of Mary written in Old English. The gospels, which deal with Mary's birth, childhood, death and assumption, are found in manuscripts in Oxford and Cambridge, but have rarely been treated as a group before and in fact have been almost totally neglected by English scholars. An extensive introduction explains the origins and development of the apocrypha from the second to the eleventh century, discussing the Syriac, Greek, Coptic and Latin evidence. Clayton goes on to consider in detail the influence of these apocrypha in Anglo-Saxon England by placing the Old English texts in a very broad context. Editions of Latin analogues from eleventh-century English manuscripts are also included in appendices.
Review quote:
'- makes a valuable contribution to modern debates about editorial practices - it provides evidence for translation practices and competency in Latin; and, above all, it brings together for the first time a body of apocryphal material, so that it can be discussed in the context of the broader tradition of which it is part.' Early Medieval Europe
