Christian Grappe reviewed my First Manuscript of the Book of Enoch in the Revue d’Histoire et de Philosophie Religieuses (RHPR). He concludes that :

One can but rejoice that the Cerf Publishing House published such a scholarly and deep study. It honors Qumran research in the French language and marks a considerable advance in terms of techniques implemented and results achieved.

I warmly thank Christian Grappe for this great review, which I invite you to read below:

André Paul wrote a review of my book, Le premier manuscrit du Livre d’Hénoch, in Recherches de Science Religieuse 98/1 (2010), 116-117. His first words are:

Le tout jeune universitaire Michaël LANGLOIS a réalisé un coup de maître avec sa thèse sur les textes araméens d’Hénoch retrouvés à Qumrân, plus précisément les fragments du premier manuscrit, 4Q201.
