IN "LETTERS" (May-June 1997), Lorna Diggle
responded to an article on Mary Magdalene ("Revisioning
Mary Magdalene," by Kimberly Burge, March-April 1997)
and asked about the availability of the gospel according to
Mary. That gospel, among other non-canonical gospels, has
been available for a couple of years in a collection edited
by Robert J. Miller, The Complete Gospels, available
through Harper.
Reader Isabel Bonnyman Stanley also wrote to let us
know that The Gospel of Mary begins on page 471 of
The Nag Hammadi Library, edited by James M. Robinson
(Harper & Row, 1977; published simultaneously in Canada
by Fitzhenry & Whiteside Ltd.). It was translated into
English by members of the Coptic Gnostic Library Project of
the Institute for Antiquity and Christianity. —The
