Notes

Translation of: Neutestamentliche Apokryphen.

"The several introductions are straight translations from the German, except for the 'residue' of the section contributed by H.C. Puech, for which a copy of the original French was also made available. The texts, however, presented something of a problem which was envisaged from the outset in the earlier edition: merely to translate the German here would have produced something at some remove from the originals, whereas completely new translations could scarcely have been put under the names of the German contributors. The solution adopted then as now was to check the translation against the originals in Latin, Greek or Coptic, to ensure that they were English versions of the original and not merely versions at third hand."--Preface, v.1, [5-6].
