The Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew and the Nativity of Mary (Westar Tools and Translations)

About The Book

The Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew is one of the most important witnesses in Western Europe to apocryphal stories about the lives of Mary Joseph Jesus and Marys parents Anna and Joachim. As a bestseller of mainstream medieval Christianity this Latin apocryphon is a keystone in the explosion of apocryphal literature in the Middle Ages. Despite its apocryphal status the Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew remained both popular and influential throughout the Middle Ages and into the early modern period as its popularity and influences may be traced in Christian literature visual arts liturgy and theological perspectives still revered by Roman Catholic theologians. The gospel is also a significant work for considering the history of monasticism and the cult of the Virgin Mary. This book presents the first English translation of the Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew with a full introduction and commentary as well as translations of related works with accompanying commentaries.
