The 28th
edition of the Nestle-Aland had to accomplish two different tasks.
First, the apparatus had to be revised thoroughly to give it more
clarity and make it easier to use. Secondly, the text-critical in-sights
and decisions resulting from work on the Editio Critica Maior of the
Greek New Testament had to be incorporated. As a consequence of these
alterations, which so far concern only the Catholic Letters, the
Nestle-Aland has for the first time in its history a different
presentation for different parts of the text. The Catholic Letters were
revised according to a fundamentally new concept which in the long run
will be adopted for the entire edition. The revision of the remaining
texts was confined to a thorough inspection and rearrangement of the
apparatus, while the basic structure was left untouched. Another
important innovation is that from now on the Nestle-Aland will not
appear only as a printed book, but also in digital form.

This project began with a series of entries under the heading AWOL on the Ancient World Bloggers Group Blog. I have decided to move it to its own space here beginning in 2009.
The primary focus of the project is notice and comment on open access material relating to the ancient world, but I will also include other kinds of networked information as it comes available.
The ancient world is conceived here as it is at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York University, my academic home. That is, from the Pillars of Hercules to the Pacific, from the beginnings of human habitation to the late antique / early Islamic period.
The Institute for the Study of the Ancient World was founded by Shelby White and the Leon Levy Foundation.
Much of what appears here will also appear in Abzu, and a newsfeed from there is included below
