The Apocalypse of Anastasia (abbreviated as "ApAnas.") is a medieval apocalyptic text pertaining to the nun Anastasia, and her near-death experience. Anastasia explores the "otherworld" with the Archangel Michael in her time of being dead for three days, and after her resurrection, she explains the marvelous and terrible things she had encountered. The text was originally written in Greek by an anonymous author and is dated either to the early tenth century or the early eleventh century. The genre of the text is that of touring Hell, and Anastasia's experience similarly follows famous biblical figures whose Apocalypses survived: Enoch, Baruch ben Neriah, Paul the Apostle, Saint Peter, and Mary, mother of Jesus.
