  • The Story of Codex H (GA 015): Manuscript Migration and Primary Sources in Biblical Studies

    Garrick V Allen, Kimberley A Fowler et al.ARTICLEJournal of Biblical Literature2025

    This article explores the complex life and significance of Codex H (GA 015), a copy of Paul’s letters in Greek preserving the earliest evidence for the Euthalian apparatus. Codex H was disassembled in the Megisti Lavra monastery on Mount Athos sometime between the tenth and thirteenth centuries and used as binding material and flyleaves in multiple other medieval manuscripts produced and restored there. Codex H’s surviving folios are now held in …

  • Studies of Shapes: Subjectivity in Palaeography and Understanding

    Open AccessGarrick V AllenARTICLENew Testament Studies2025

    This article explores the critical possibilities that arise in New Testament studies when we view palaeography as a subjective discipline. In response to recent trends in palaeography that contrive new tools and techniques for making ‘objective’ judgements regarding the dates of manuscripts, I argue that another equally valid approach is to embrace palaeography as a practice akin to aesthetics, one that relies on observation and judgements about …

  • Reading, Writing, and Bookish Circles in the Ancient Mediterranean

    Jonathan D H Norton, Garrick V Allen et al.BOOKReading, Writing, and Bookish…2022

    By integrating conversations across disciplines, especially focusing on classical studies and Jewish and Christian studies, this volume addresses several imbalances in scholarship on reading and textual activity in the ancient Mediterranean. Contributors intentionally place Jewish, Christian, Roman, Greek and other reading circles back into their encompassing historical context, avoiding subdivisions along modern subject lines, divisions still be…

  • Titles in the New Testament Papyri

    Open AccessGarrick V AllenARTICLENew Testament Studies2022

    In this article I catalogue and analyse every form of the title – inscriptions, subscriptions and kephalaia – that appears in the New Testament papyri, bringing together this material for the first time. The titles provide new evidence for examining questions related to traditions of entitling in antiquity more broadly and offer a space to consider the dynamic relationships between medium, materiality, book-forms, paratextuality and interpretatio…

  • Early Textual Scholarship on Acts: Observations from the Euthalian Quotation Lists

    Open AccessGarrick V AllenARTICLEReligions2022Cited by: 2References: 20

    This article examines two aspects of the ubiquitous, but oft-overlooked, set of paratexts known as the Euthalian Apparatus. The Euthalian apparatus supplements Acts, the Pauline Epistles, and the Catholic Epistles in a variety of manuscripts, framing these works with prefaces, cross-references, lists of various kinds, and biographic texts relating to Paul. To begin to understand this variable system as a work of late-ancient textual scholarship, …

  • Titles of the New Testament (TiNT): A New Approach to Manuscripts and the History of Interpretation

    Garrick V Allen, Kelsie G RodenbikerARTICLEEarly Christianity2020

    »Vielmehr bietet [der Kommentar] auf höchstem Niveau eine substantielle Auseinandersetzung mit den Hintergründen, den Zusammenhängen, der Theorie und der Praxis des Grundgesetzes. Besseres lässt sich von einem Verfassungskommentar nicht sagen.“ Herbert Günther Staaatsanzeiger für das Land Hessen 2018 (50), 1494–1495

  • Paratexts Seeking Understanding: Manuscripts and Aesthetic Cognitivism

    Open AccessGarrick V Allen, Anthony P RoyleARTICLEReligions2020References: 36

    This article explores the relationship between manuscripts of ancient religious literature and aesthetic cognitivism, a normative theory of the value of art. Arguing that manuscripts both contain and constitute works of art, we explore paratextuality as a phenomenon that connects manuscript studies to both qualitative and quantitative sides of aesthetic cognitivism. Focusing on our work with a single unpublished gospel manuscript (Dublin, CBL W 1…

    THOMAS J KRAUS, A Yi et al.BOOKThe Future of New Testament…2019

    This volume examines the ways that recent changes in digital media and editing reflect historical changes to perceptions of the New Testament at the turn of the twentieth-century. The study of the texts and manuscripts of the New Testament fundamentally shapes how we interpret the corpus.

  • The future of New Testament textual scholarship: From H.C. Hoskier to the "Editio Critica Maior" and beyond

    Garrick V AllenBOOKThe future of New Testament…2019

    This volume fundamentally re-examines textual approaches to the New Testament and its manuscripts in the age of digital editing and media. Using the eccentric work of Herman Charles Hoskier as a shared foundation for analysis, contributors examine the intellectual history of New Testament textual scholarship and the production of critical editions, identify many avenues for further research, and discuss the methods and protocols for producing the…

  • The Digital Humanities in Biblical Studies and Theology

As such, …
