The Online Critical Pseudepigrapha

I have most recently been made aware of a website, providing The Online Critical Pseudepigrapha. This project will surely be welcomed byy many scholars in various fields of studies, including those most often visiting this blog. The project is presented thus on its website:For some time it has been evident that scholars of early Judaism and early Christianity need better access to the texts of the Pseudepigrapha in their original (or extant) languages and with a critical apparatus. In many cases critical editions are prohibitively expensive or out of print, and scholars without access to a large library have been hard pressed to find them.

The Online Critical Pseudepigrapha is intended to address this problem by publishing on-line, free-access critical texts of the Pseudepigrapha which are up-to-date and academically rigorous. This aim is to be realized by

1) co-ordinating the efforts of scholars who take on the editing of individual texts;
2) providing a forum for peer review of texts as they are developed;
3) developing the technology necessary for the publication of these texts in electronic form; and
4) providing a permanent web-site for the long-term publication of these texts and as a forum for ongoing text-critical work on the pseudepigrapha. We ought to be greatful to the scholars providing this material online.

Talking about the pseudepigrapha, there is also a related project at www.logos.com. They are announcing that a digitalized version of the pseudepigrapha will be released later this year in their Libronix Logos program.
