This volume offers a new translation of the Pseudo-Clementine
family narrative here known as The Sorrows of Mattidia. It contains
a full introduction which explores the obscured origins of the
text, the plot, and main characters, and engages in a comparison of
the portrayal of pagan, Jewish, and Christian women in this text
with what we encounter in other literature. It also discusses a
general strategy for how historians can utilize fictional
narratives like this when examining the lives of women in the
ancient world. This translation makes this fascinating source for
late antique women available in this form for the first time.
