Biography

AnneMarie Luijendijk joined Princeton faculty in 2006. She is a scholar of the New Testament and Early Christianity and a papyrologist, interested in the social history of early Christianity, using literary texts and documentary sources. Her book, 'Greetings from the Lord: The Early Christians and the Oxyrhynchus Papyri' (Harvard University Press, 2008), investigates papyrus letters and documents pertaining to Christians in the ancient Egyptian city of Oxyrhynchus during the pre-Constantinian period. Another book, 'Forbidden Oracles?' (Mohr Siebeck, 2014), entails a previously unknown 5th/6th century Coptic manuscript entitled 'The Gospel of Lots of Mary,' providing Christian oracular answers. She is currently working on a book titled 'Gospels Garbage,' which examines Christian manuscripts, the development of the New Testament canon, and the material culture with a focus on Oxyrhynchus papyri. Luijendijk specialized in the New Testament at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands, and received her doctorate from Harvard University, Divinity School, in 2005. She serves as the Director of Graduate Studies for the 2016-2017 academic year.
