Texts in Transition: The Greek Life of Adam and Eve

by John R. Levison

Levison examines a brief tale written in Greek sometime before the fourth century, noting that it is perhaps the earliest known Jewish or Christian autobiographical narrative of a woman. After a general overview of the various text forms, he sets out the variants in parallel columns of Greek. He does not index the study. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
