"This volume has taken a rather circuitous path to publication. The project began under the wise editorship of Barry Matlock, who originally contracted most of the essays in the table of contents. A few years along the way, however, Matlock handed over editorship to me, Matthew Novenson. I brought the volume to completion by collecting the essays contracted by Matlock and contracting quite a few more. One happy consequence of this unusual process is that our contributors run the gamut from very senior professors to early-career researchers. Together they offer, in addition to their outstanding expertise in the subject matter, a valuable snapshot of the field in the early twenty-first century. I owe thanks to Barry Matlock for his outstanding formative work on this project and to Tom Perridge, Karen Raith, and Katie Bishop, along with their crack team at Oxford University Press, for seeing the whole thing through from beginning to end. I wish that I had had this book years ago when I was a green graduate student trying to learn my way around the bewildering field of Pauline studies, and I hope that the book will now be a help to many others"--
