This volume contains editions of texts, theological, literary, subliterary, and documentary. The theological section includes large fragments of the First Apocalypse of James (5533), an early Christian narrative of conversations between Jesus and his brother, James. The Greek text is otherwise lost and scholars have depended on two often conflicting Coptic versions. The first of seven magical papyri is a second-century exorcism manual (5542), and a series of potted lives of the Successors of Alexander the Great illuminates the history of ancient life-writing before Plutarch (5535). A fragment of commentary on Aristophanes (5536) and five grammatical texts (5537-41) complete Section II. Section III provides a mass of new evidence concerning slavery in the Roman world. The photographs show all the new theological, literary, and subliterary texts, and eleven of the documents.

Amin Benaissa is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Classics, University of Oxford, and a Fellow of Lady Margaret Hall.

Michael Zellmann-Rohrer is a researcher in the Institute for the History of Knowledge in Antiquity, Free University of Berlin. He specializes in magical and astrological papyri and related texts in the late ancient and medieval tradition.
