Abstract

Coptic literature abounds with references to books that never existed as physical objects in their own right. This article explores the role of fictional books specifically in a selection of Coptic apocrypha deriving from the entire period of Coptic literary production. Whether presented as apostolic, prophetic, or angelic; earthly or heavenly; historical or contemporary, references to fictional books could function as veracity devices, authority claims, or as materials for storyworld creation. Taking as its points of departure recent work on pseudo-documentarism, transnarrative storyworlds, and the cognitive effects of fiction, this article explores implicit claims to authority and authenticity, as well as the fuzzy boundaries and interrelationships between fictional and factual references in meaning- and world-making.

科普特伪经小说

科普特文学中有大量关于书籍的参考资料，这些书籍从未以实体形式存在过。这篇文章探讨了虚构书籍的作用，特别是在科普特伪经的选择衍生自科普特文学生产的整个时期。使徒的，先知的或天使的;地上的或天上的;无论是历史上的还是当代的，对虚构书籍的引用都可以作为真实性手段、权威主张或故事世界创造的材料。本文以最近关于伪文献主义、跨叙事故事世界和虚构的认知效应的研究为出发点，探讨了对权威和真实性的隐含主张，以及在意义和世界制造中虚构和事实参考之间的模糊界限和相互关系。

期刊介绍： The last twenty years have witnessed some remarkable achievements in the study of early Jewish literature. Given the ever-increasing number and availability of primary sources for these writings, specialists have been producing text-critical, historical, social scientific, and theological studies which, in turn, have fuelled a growing interest among scholars, students, religious leaders, and the wider public. The only English journal of its kind, Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha was founded in 1987 to provide a much-needed forum for scholars to discuss and review most recent developments in this burgeoning field in the academy.
