Opis

During the first centuries of the Christian era, a large number of discrepant Latin translations of the Old and the New Testaments were in circulation. Rebekka S. Schirmer examines St. Augustine s comments about the problems raised by these texts, both descriptive and normative, and the extent to which Augustine s engagement with different versions of the Bible employed philological methods of biblical exegesis."

Recenzje

"The goal of comprehensiveness is unquestionably achieved through a meritorious study of a great number of Augustine's texts and secondary literature, as one can see from the diverse references. [...] The book is stimulating for various scientific branches: not just for Augustinian and Patristic studies [...] but also for biblical studies [...] as well as for historic-linguistic studies [...] and, in general, for the historic-cultural realm [...]."
