Peabody, Mass. : | London : Hendrickson Publishers | British Library 2010 . 1 volume : , "The printed facsimile of Codex Sinaiticus is based on the digital photographs taken as part of the Codex Sinaiticus Project at the The British Library in London by Laurence Pordes, at Leipzig University Library by Elisabeth Fritsch-Hartung, at St Catherine's Monastery in Sinai by Michael Phelps and Father Justin and at the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts in St Petersburg by Svetlana Shevelchinskaya. The images ... were processed to represent faithfully the actual appearance of the pages and were minimally reduced in size by approximately 5%."-- Reference guide, p. 5 | "When it was compiled, the Codex consisted of at least 97 quires -groups of large double-sheets of parchment that were folded and bound, usually containing 8 folios or 16 pages. The number of the quire and the folio number (with the addition of 'r' for 'recto' when representing the right or front page and 'v' for 'verso' when representing the left of back page of a leaf) have been used to refer to the pages of Codex Sinaiticus. The advantage of this approach is that it provides a new unified system that can be related to existing references through the concordance and has the flexibility to accommodate any future discoveries of lost leaves. The Concordance [in the Reference Guide] offers a guide to the numbers and content of each page in this facsimile. It also provides the equivalent references used at each library."--Reference guide p. 5 | The Reference Guide includes a history of the Codex itself as well as a Concordance of the folios and their contents | Issued in slipcase (45 cm) 43 cm +. 9781598565775 | 159856577X | 9780712349987 | 0712349987
