The Gospel According to Mark

As a capstone session to her course on "The Gospel According to Mark," Margaret Mitchell selected four versions of the Gospels from the Edgar J. Goodspeed Collection of New Testament Manuscripts. The students consulted an original 12th-century manuscript as well as the disputed Archaic Mark, which is either a crucial 14th-century version of Mark or a clever 19th-century forgery.

  • Larissa Gospels, Thessaly, 13th-14th century. MS 134
  • Archaic Mark, Asia Minor/Syria, 14th century? MS 972
  • Janina Gospels, Patmos, 1128-1157. MS 141
  • Isaac Gospels, Trebizond, 14th century. MS 137
