Koptische Zeugen der Auferstehungsberichte

AUTHOR Kreinecker, Christina M.
PUBLISHER de Gruyter (12/12/2008)
PRODUCT TYPE Hardcover (Hardcover)

Description

The present volume is devoted to the Coptic tradition of New Testament accounts of the Resurrection (Mt 28,1-8; Mk 16,1-8; Lk 24,1-12; Joh 20,1-10 together with the oldest witness to the Resurrection in 1Cor 15,3-5). In it, a comprehensive text-critical apparatus includes nearly all Sahidic manuscripts at present available, most of them unedited, and the textual variants are presented, provided with a commentary and divided into groups. A second stage contrasts and compares the propositions in the Greek and Coptic texts to discover syntactic differences between them and comment on these; here, dependency grammar is applied to the Coptic language for the first time. Particular attention is paid here to the rendering of Greek verbs in Coptic. It is the aim of this volume to present the Coptic versions of the Resurrection accounts on a scale hitherto unmatched, and apart from establishing textual variants within the Coptic texts to identify those syntactic differences from the Greek texts which cannot simply be traced back to the translation process.
