rigin in an age as yet free from the
trammels of formal orthodoxy. Again it is a notable specimen of early
Christian pseudepigraphy, and one which had manifold and far-reaching
results. Finally the romance to which it owed much of its popular
appeal, became, through the medium of Rufinus's Latin, the parent of the
late medieval legend of Faust, and so the ancestor of a famous type in
modern literature.

LITERATURE.--For a full list of this down to 1904 see Hans Waitz, "Die
Pseudoklementinen" (_Texte u. Untersuchungen zur Gesch. der altchr.
Literatur, neue Folge_, Bd. x. Heft 4), and A. Harnack, _Chronologie
der altchr. Litteratur_ (1904), ii. 518 f. In English, besides Hort's
work, there are articles by G. Salmon, in _Dict. of Christ. Biog._, C.
Bigg, _Studia Biblica_, ii., A.C. Headlam, _Journal of Theol.
Studies_, iii. (J. V. B.)

FOOTNOTES:

[1] Dr Armitage Robinson, in his edition of the _Philocalia_
(extracts made c. 358 by Basil and Gregory from Origen's writings),
proved that the passage cited below is simply introduced as a
parallel to an extract of Origen's; while Dom Chapman, in the
_Journal of Theol. Studies_, iii. 436 ff., made it probable that the
passages in Origen's _Comm. on Matthew_ akin to those in the _Opus
Imperf. in Matth._ are insertions in the former, which is extant only
in a Latin version. Subsequently he suggested (_Zeitsch. f. N.T.
Wissenschaft_, ix. 33 f.) that the passage in the _Philocalia_ is due
not to its authors but to an early editor, since it is the only
citation not referred to Origen.

[2] While Hort and Waitz say c. 200, Harnack says c. 260. The reign
of Gallienus (260-268) would suit the tone of its references to the
Roman emperor (Waitz, p. 74), and also any polemic against the
Neoplatonic philosophy of revelation by visions and dreams which it
may contain.

[3] Even Waitz agrees to this, though he argues back to a yet earlier
anti-Pauline (rather than anti-Marcionite) form, composed in
Caesarea, c. 135.

[4] Dom Chapman maintains that the _Recognitions_ (c. 370-390,) even
attack the doctrine of God in the _Homilies_ or their archetype.

[5] Dom Chapman (ut supra, p. 158) says during the Neoplatonist
reaction under Julian 361-363, to which period he also assigns the
_Homilies_.
