The Encyclopædia Iranica, J. P. Asmussen:


BARLAAM AND IOSAPH, Persian Belawhar o Būdāsaf, a Greek Christian or Christianized novel of Buddhist origins which throughout the Middle Ages and until quite recently was almost universally at­tributed to St. John of Damascus (ca. 675-ca. 749), e.g., in the Martyrologium of Pope Sixtus the Fifth (1585-­90), s.d. 27 November. All the manuscripts are later than 1500. Being extremely popular it received various accretions (e.g., the lost Greek Apology of Aristides, see Eusebius of Caesarea, Historia ecclesiastica 4.3) and was often translated: into Arabic (in the 13th century) whence into Ethiopic (in the 16th century), Armenian, Latin, and from Latin into the main European lan­guages. The book won great favor in Germany through Rudolf von Ems’ epic version of it (ca. 1230) and in Scandinavia in the same century through the Old Norse translation ordered by King Haakon Haakonsøn. It was used in the Legenda aurea by the Dominican Jacobus de Voragine (late 13th cent.) and in the Gesta Romanorum and thereby gained widespread popularity in Europe. Finally, William Shakespeare borrowed from it the Tale of the Caskets for his Merchant of Venice. more
