This collection of apocryphal writings supersedes the best-selling
edition by M.R. James, first published in 1924. Since then, several
new works have come to light, and the textual base for some of the
works previously translated by James is now more secure. This
volume presents new translations of the texts into modern English,
together with a short introduction and bibliography for each of
them. It is designed to give readers the most important and famous
non-canonical Christian writings, many of them popular legends with
an enormous influence on later, particularly medieval, art and
literature, as well as on later beliefs and practices of the
Church.
