| Summary: | The Coptic Book of Bartholomew, also known as Liber Bartholomaei, is preserved in several Sahidic manuscripts, all incomplete. Two of these originated in the famous library of the White Monastery in Upper Egypt. At a certain point, one of the fragments of these codices belonged to the French scholar Jean Doresse. The fragment in question has vanished, being known only by a photograph of its recto. This article shows that the Doresse fragment has resurfaced recently in the collection of Cornell University in Ithaca. The author documents its modern history, and analyzes its content for the first time. The article also includes an edition and English translation of the new fragment. |
