Omschrijving
This collection of twenty-seven studies by colleagues, students, and friends of Prof. Dr. Hans-Martin Schenke honors his many contributions to the study of Gnosticism and related religious phenomena in Antiquity, Coptic language and literature, and the New Testament.
'Un tel panorama de spécialités, mais surtout une qualité certaine dans un très grand nombre de contributions font de cet hommage un volume qui fera date dans les études coptes et gnostiques.' Jean-Daniel Dubois, Apocrypha, 2004. 'This volume is a fitting tribute to one of the most brilliant and creative scholars of our time, who unfortunately died just a few weeks after it was presented to him.' Birger A. Pearson, Religious Studies Review, 2003.
