About this title

Synopsis

Series: Studies in Theology and Religion (STAR) vol. 8

From 4 to 6 January 2001, a three-day international conference on textual criticism took place in Münster. This conference was remarkable for its multi-disciplinary set-up. The speakers included experts in the field of New Testament textual criticism as well as researchers who specialise in preparing critical editions of documents from early-Jewish and rabbinic literature.
Text-critical problems concerning the study of early-Christian literature other than the New Testament were also on the conference programme.

This book contains most of the papers presented during the conference, but it is not simply a volume containing conference proceedings. The papers have often been thoroughly revised and two articles were added afterwards at the invitation of the editors. There is also a substantial inroduction by the editors.
Contributors include Barbara Aland, James Keith Elliott, and Folkert Siegert.
