35 Such a late translation date for
Ag would explain why such an important figure as St. Gregory is
unmentioned by Koriwn and mentioned only in passing by the pious
cleric Ghazar P'arpec'i writing at the end of the fifth century.
Garitte concludes that excepting the Teaching of St. Gregory and
the interpolated story of Artashir's revolt, Ag is a faithful
translation of Aa made by an Armenian. See G. Garitte, Documents
pour 1 etude du livre d'Agathange (Vatican City, 1946), pp.
1-16 and p. 333 (hereafter Garitte). The present study was completed
in 1975, before the appearance of R.W. Thomson's edition of Agat'angelos
(Albany, 1976). Readers may now consult that work which contains
a reprint of the Tiflis, 1909 Armenian text accompanied by an
English translation. Thomson's introduction provides the most
recent review of the versions as well as supplementary bibliography.
