Biblical Apocrypha in South-Eastern Europe and Related Areas, 2021
An analysis of a long compilation of Pseudo-Apostolic Acts preserved in the Slavonic translation from the lost Greek that, in turn, was a translation from the lost Syriac. This is a seventh-century monothelete document connected with the Syrian ecclesiastical expansion to Italia and, especially, Rome. In the part related to the Acts of Peter in Rome (otherwise unknown) important for the Roman church Santa Maria Antiqua and the Roman cult of the relics of St Stephanus.
Some parts are important for different topics (Pseudo-Pseudo-Dionysian corpus, Pseudo-Hippolytus of Rome, an apocryphal gospel quoted in Epiphanius, the Syrian baptismal rites, the dossier of Pancratius of Tauromenium, legends reported in the Grail romances ascribed to Robert de Boron…)
