His first article on them was published in 1949. Writing in French he soon published an overview of the scrolls, <i>Aperçus préliminaires sur les manuscrits de la Mer Morte</i>, which was translated into English in 1952. He was a strong advocate of the Essene connection with the Dead Sea scrolls and in this work he argued for the Essene origin of Christianity. Although his ideas about Christianity were not taken up by the scholarly community, his writings contributed to a better understanding of the scrolls. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Partial_bibliography">Partial bibliography</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Andr%C3%A9_Dupont-Sommer&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Partial bibliography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Books">Books</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Andr%C3%A9_Dupont-Sommer&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Books"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><i>Aperçus préliminaires sur les manuscrits de la mer Morte</i>, Adrien-Maisonneuve, Paris, 1950</li> <li><i>Nouveaux Aperçus sur les manuscrits de la mer Morte</i>, Adrien-Maisonneuve, 1953</li> <li><i>Les écrits esséniens découverts près de la mer Morte</i>, Payot, 1959</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Articles">Articles</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Andr%C3%A9_Dupont-Sommer&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Articles"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><i>Une bilingue gréco-araméenne d'Aśoka</i>, Journal Asiatique 246, 1958, pp. 1–48</li> <li><i>Une nouvelle inscription araméenne d'Asoka découverte à Kandahar (Afghanistan)</i> Comptes rendus des séances de l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres Année 1966 110–3 <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.persee.fr/doc/crai_0065-0536_1966_num_110_3_12024">pp. 440–451</a></li> <li><i>Une inscription indo-araméenne d'Asoka provenant de Kandahar</i>, Journal Asiatique 254, 1966, pp. 437–465</li> <li><i>Une nouvelle inscription araméenne d'Asoka trouvée dans la vallée du Laghman (Afghanistan)</i> Comptes rendus des séances de l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, Year 1970 114–1 <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.persee.fr/doc/crai_0065-0536_1970_num_114_1_12491">pp. 158–173</a></li> <li><i>Essénisme et Bouddhisme</i>, Comptes rendus des séances de l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres Année 1980 124–4 <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.persee.fr/doc/crai_0065-0536_1980_num_124_4_13784">pp. 698–715</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Sources">Sources</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Andr%C3%A9_Dupont-Sommer&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Sources"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_Caquot" title="André Caquot">André Caquot</a>, <i>André Dupont-Sommer 1900–1983</i></li> <li>Jacques Briend, in <i>Encyclopedia of the Dead Sea Scrolls</i> Vol.1, Edd.
