This learned and ingenious monograph raises important methodological questions for the study of the Pseudepigrapha that will define the study of this corpus of ancient writings in the coming generation.
- John J. Collins, Yale University,
Dugan’s argument is rigorous, nuanced, judicious, and admirably reflexive throughout. Her breadth of expertise in different materials, languages, corpora, and periods make this a richly complex and original study. [...] This book should be required reading for scholars and advanced students of Jewish and Christian literature and will also be of interest to specialists in ancient textual practices, book history, and provincial responses to Roman imperialism. I look forward to the creative new conversations it will stimulate about textual transmission across the boundaries of periods, languages, and religious traditions.
