Abstract

A l’instar, d’Adam et Ève qui découvrent un monde nouveau après leur expulsion du paradis, la Vie d’Adam et Ève entraîne la recherche scientifique au-delà de plusieurs frontières conceptuelles établies et c’est à un élargissement des curiosités qu’invite le présent volume. L’écrit apocryphe en question interroge au moins trois frontières, l’une religieuse, l’autre linguistique et la troisième théologique et culturelle.A l’origine, le colloque international sur les littératures apocryphes juive et chrétienne consacré à la Vie d’Adam et Ève entendait reprendre le dossier textuel de cet écrit, sur la base renouvelée de l’édition préparée par Jean-Pierre Pettorelli, d’explorer les diverses recensions et les innombrables réécritures ou reprises de ce texte dans différentes langues, aires géographiques ou culturelles, et d’analyser leurs relations, puis d’ouvrir la discussion à une large palette de thèmes liés aux protoplastes, tels que le paradis, Satan, les explications de l’origine du mal, le sort d’Adam, les mystères qui lui sont révélés, la génération humaine, la nourriture, la sauvagerie des animaux, ou encore la souffrance et la mort.Au final, le texte de la Vie d’Adam et Ève a fonctionné comme point de départ d’un tour d’horizon. A l’image du colloque, ses actes ne constituent donc ni un mode d’emploi de l’édition du dossier latin publiée dans la Series apocryphorum, ni un commentaire de la Vita Adae et Evae. Ils sont plutôt l’illustration du succès rencontré par ce document dans les aires culturelles et linguistiques les plus diverses, et, pourrait-on dire, les plus inattendues.

Abstract

The Greek Life of Adam and Eve addresses the issue that every individual in every generation needs to face: the prospect of pain and sickness leading to death and beyond that the great unknown. But what kind of message does this writing bring to its readers? What kind of 'salvation' does it offer? Is it a Jewish or Christian text? In this first attempt to provide a comprehensive interpretation, Michael Eldridge deploys a panoply of scholarly methods, including lexical analysis, textual criticism, genre criticism, narrative criticism and speech act theory, to establish that the Greek Life has in part a missionary intent and is most likely a Jewish rather than a Christian text. This study will interest all concerned with Early Judaism, especially those grappling with the 'Jewish mission' question.

Abstract

The Life of Adam and Eve once belonged to the most popular literature in the Christian world. Retelling the Genesis 3 story, it gives an elaborate description of Adam's death and his assumption to Paradise in the third heaven. His continued existence, as well as his future resurrection, are as much a paradigm for humanity as his transgression, condemnation and death. For a long time attention was focused on the Greek and Latin versions only. More recently, editions of Georgian and Armenian versions have become available, occupying a middle position between the Greek and the Latin. This new material now makes it necessary to sort out the relationships between no less than five clearly related but in many respects different documents. Taken together they present a complex but interesting mosaic of reflections on the human plight, inspired by the Genesis story. [publisher's description]

Abstract

This volume contains the first critical edition of the Life of Adam and Eve in Greek, based on all available manuscripts. In the introduction the history of previous research is summarized, and the extant manuscripts are presented. Next comes a description of the grammatical characteristics of the manuscripts' texts, followed by a detailed study of the genealogical relationships between them, resulting in a reconstruction of the writing's history of transmission in Greek. On the basis of all this information, the Greek text of the Life of Adam and Eve in its earliest attainable stage, is established. The text edition is accompanied by a full critical apparatus, in which all relevant evidence from the manuscripts is recorded. Several indices complete this volume.
