Excerpt from The Books of the Apocrypha: Their Origin, Teaching and Contents Signs have not been wanting during the last few years of an increasing interest both in what is called the "Apocrypha" as well as in the body of literature, mainly of an apocalyptic character, which goes under the name of the "Pseudepigrapha." Notable among these signs arc two of an outstanding character. The founding of the "International Society for the Promoting of the Study of the Apocrypha" was an important event in this connection; the founder, the Rev. Herbert Pentin. is to be sincerely congratulated on the success with which his efforts have been crowned; the support accorded by many of our leading scholars has doubtless been very gratifying to him. Few things have done more to foster interest in the subjects which the Society has at heart than the publication of its quarterly journal, The International Journal of Apocrypha. This magazine makes its appeal to all grades of readers; and if the greater stress is laid upon the popular side, the editor has his good reasons for this, for it is the general reader who does not yet understand that the "Apocrypha" and the "Pscudcpigrapha" together form an indispensable link between the Old and New Testaments.

North American study of the Christian Apocrypha is known principally for its interest in using noncanonical texts to reconstruct the life and teachings of Jesus, and for its support of Walter Bauer's theory on the development of early Christianity. The papers in this volume, presented in September 2013 at York University in Toronto, challenge that simplistic assessment by demonstrating that U.S. and Canadian scholarship on the Christian Apocrypha is rich and diverse. The topics covered in the papers include new developments in the study of canon formation, the interplay of Christian Apocrypha and texts from the Nag Hammadi library, digital humanities resources for reconstructing apocryphal texts, and the value of studying late-antique apocrypha. Among the highlights of the collection are papers from a panel by three celebrated New Testament scholars reassessing the significance of the Christian Apocrypha for the study of the historical Jesus. Forbidden Texts on the Western Frontier demonstrates the depth and breadth of Christian Apocrypha studies in North America and offers a glimpse at the achievements that lie ahead in the field.

This volume presents a timely contribution to the growing body of scholarship on the apocryphal writings and their reception in the Middle Ages, especially in connection with visual representation. It aims to bridge what often remains disconnected, the visual art and the written text, the early Christian roots and medieval reception, the East and the West, as well as methodologies of various disciplines. The studies in this volume firstly investigate issues related to the Virgin Mary, and through them, also the status, function, and identity of women. Mary and the female element thus represent significant models and/or background figures in fields pertaining to theology, religious studies, textual studies, manuscript studies, and art history in a trans-disciplinary perspective. Secondly, the studies focus on the apostles and the Last Judgment, their visual representations and the use of apocryphal sources. The volume is divided in two parts according to two major topics: Part I dealing with Mary in the Apocrypha, and Part II focusing on the Apostles and the Last Judgment.

"Albeit often neglected or misrepresented, apocryphal texts are primary witnesses to the history of the Jesus movement, early Christianity, late antique society, and Jewish and Christian relations. The authors of the present volume wish to offer an overview of the variety and complexity of the apocryphal continent, putting these texts into a critical perspective that takes into account the most recent developments of research on ancient Judaism and Christianity"--
