Frederick Henry Scrivener (1813-1891) was a pioneer of New
Testament textual criticism. His transcription of the Codex
Augiensis - a ninth-century Greek and Latin manuscript of St Paul's
Epistles which had been part of the famous Benedictine library at
Reichenau - was published in 1859 and is a document of considerable
historical significance in biblical research. It presents 'as true
an image as possible' of the ninth-century text. The volume also
includes a 'full and exact' collation of fifty manuscripts of the
Gospels. In his Critical Introduction, Scrivener provides a
detailed account of the manuscripts he has collated, setting the
context for the reader. He also investigates the principles of
comparative criticism, demonstrating that true and faithful
readings of the Greek New Testament cannot be derived from any one
authority, but must be the result of patient comparison of the
evidence provided by all.
