Hope this is not TOO far off-topic: The thought occurred to me: Qumran finds have aroused considerable interest and even speculation among non-specialists. The same happened with cuneiform finds a goodish half-century earlier (Bibel-Babel controversy and all that). But how about the pseudepigrapha? Many (all?) of these were unknown to western scholarship, and certainly to the public, until some time in the 19th century. What was the reaction to their eventual publication? Has anything been written on their "reception history" in modern culture and scholarship? shavua tov Soren, Copenhagen
