Description

This volume illuminates the full extent of the corpus of ancient and mediaeval apocryphal Daniel literature. It is the first study to examine the Daniel legenda, the apocryphal apocalypses, and the prognostica as discrete categories of texts and to evaluate their generic relationship to the biblical Book of Daniel. Special emphases include the identification of the texts and their manuscript evidence as well as the study of late antique and early mediaeval apocalyptic literature attributed to Daniel. This volume will be of particular interest to biblical scholars and to those who specialise in biblical apocrypha and pseudepigrapha.

I am not a keen reviewer, at Amazon or other sites, but this tome deserves special attention. This was a long-awaited volume that aims - successfully - to index the many variants of books linked or inspired (in a lay sense) by the canonical Daniel. It does the scholars a big favour by showing where this or that ms. is to be found, or even if it has been published. And reminds us of how much hard work lies ahead for all those committed to Daniel or apocalyptic literature at large; no doubt this volume makes this work a little lighter, but still it does not replace individual monographs in great need on each of them - but then this is not the author's intention and even if it were, we would need a whole series just on the texts indexed. Not to be missed.
