1997-1998: Research at the NIAS Institute,
Wassenaar, The Netherlands
"The research of my group at NIAS
will deal with techniques of translation, particularly from Greek into Armenian. I intend
to work mainly on the late antique philosophical treatise, De Natura. In addition to
reassessing the current edition with an eye to replacing it with an electronic edition, I
intend jointly with Jaap Mansfeld to complete the English translation and commentary. My
second project will be to complete a book on traditions of the temptation of Adam and Eve,
the so-called legend of the "Cheirograph of Adam" utilizing literary and
iconographic sources in a variety of languages: Ethiopic, Syriac, Hebrew, Slavonic,
Armenian and Georgian."
Research Interests:
Armenian literature, particularly that deriving
from and associated with the Bible. Armenian paleography and Armenian epigraphy, with
particular stress on the Holy Land and Sinai. The development of apocryphal traditions in

Abstracts of Current Research:
Studies in Jewish apocryphal literature and
the Dead Sea Scrolls:
A current focus of interest is the functioning
of Jewish Apocryphal literature and traditions in later Jewish and Christian usage,
including the Qumran texts relating to Noah, Levi, Qahat and Amram, and Biblical Apocrypha
at Qumran. Major work is underway on the Adam and Eve traditions and literature, both in
ancient Judaism and in their later Jewish and Christian developments.
Apocryphal literature in Armenian:
Work continues for the publication of Jewish and
Biblical texts which have been preserved in the Armenian Church. A volume of texts on Adam
and Eve has recently been published, and a critical edition of the Armenian version of the
Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs is being prepared.
Key words:
Apocrypha; Pseudepigrapha; Dead Sea Scrolls;
Armenian, epigraphy; Armenians; inscriptions, Armenian; Adam and Eve, manuscripts;
paleography; textual databases; concordances
