The Manichaean Codices of Medinet Madi

Reviews / Votes

"This book is about one of the most sensational discoveries of ancient manuscripts made in the twentieth century, and the manifold obstacles their conservation and reading ran into. It contains the results of Robinson's meticulous research in the fate and inventories of the various parts of this collection, which even historians of religion are often not familiar with. . . . [T]his thoroughly researched survey . . . is a welcome source of information for scholars . . . not only for those working on the manuscripts but also for the broader range of historically interested people who are going to use these sources."
Wolf-Peter Funk, Editor of the Berlin Coptic Manichaean manuscripts

"It is without question very convenient to have all of this material gathered together in a single volume, and anglophones will be pleased to have an English version of the many excerpts of earlier scholarship. ....it will be a key resource for the study of the Manichaean materials from Medinet Madi for the forseeable future."

"...there is perhaps no better place for a post-graduate or scholar to dive in to specialized study of these manuscripts as the author provides a veritable treasure trove of information."
