The ancient Dormition and Assumption traditions are a collection of
over sixty different narratives, preserved in nine ancient
languages, that commemorate the end of the Virgin Mary's life.
These traditions have long been overlooked by scholars of early
Christianity, no doubt largely because this complicated corpus was
insufficiently well known. The present study aims to remedy this
situation with a detailed analysis of the earliest traditions of
Mary's death, including liturgical and archaeological evidence as
well as the numerous narrative sources. Several of the most
important narratives are translated in appendices, many appearing
in English for the first time. The book will be of interest to all
scholars of early Christian literature.
