AB This essay examines the state of research on the Pseudepigrapha and related literature since the publication of J.H. Charlesworth's Old Testament Pseudepigrapha (1983—85). The current research is rich in scope, generally excellent in quality, and truly international in character. While in previous decades only a few scholars of the first rank were associated with the study of this literature, now many of the best scholars work in the field. In addition, the widespread availability of the Pseudepigrapha in translation has precipitated a far greater familiarity with these texts. Although there is still work to be done, it is not too much to suggest that at no point in the past has the Pseudepigrapha been the object of such remarkable and sustained work.
