About this Item
Pages: xii + 356 p. Illustrations:1 b/w. Language(s):English. Brepols, Publication Year:2023 -- SUMMARY This volume includes eight new translations of early Christian narratives about the end of the Virgin Mary s life, that is, her Dormition and Assumption. Translated from Greek, Latin, Syriac, Ethiopic, Georgian, and Christian Palestinian Aramaic, each of these texts is either translated into a modern language for the first time, or appears in a version that has not previously been published. The texts represent a broad range of the highly diverse early Christian memories of Mary's departure from this world. Likewise, the texts themselves often disclose a range of theological diversity within the early Christian tradition even beyond what scholars have thus far recognized.
