If the FWF GenAut project “Generative Authority” studies the complex literature where minor figures of early Christianity become main literary characters (in apocrypha or hagiography), the ERC CLAIM project “Secondary Pseudepigraphy” will investigate the literary phenomenon where these figures became authors (of letters, theological tracts, canons, or indeed apocrypha) in the context of ancient practices of authorship.
