Eine Mithrasliturgie, Albrecht Dieterich's 1903 critical edition from B. G. Teubner, Leipzig, is the study that isolated and named the so called Mithras Liturgy within the Paris Magical Papyrus. Its strength is that it is the foundational scholarly study of this text, confirmed against multiple independent bibliographic listings. Its limit is that Dieterich's own identification of the text as specifically Mithraic is the very point later scholarship has contested, so a claim resting on that identification should be checked against subsequent critical assessment.
