Cain comprehensively addresses stylistic, literary, historical, text-critical and other issues of interpretive interest. Accompanying the commentary is an introduction which situates the Letter in the broader context of its author’s life and work and exposes its fundamental propagandistic dimensions. The revised critical Latin text and the new facing-page translation will make the Letter more accessible than ever before and will provide a reliable textual apparatus for future scholarship on this key writing by one of the most prolific authors in Latin antiquity.Supplements to Vigiliae Christianae ;119.ClergyMonksElectronic books.Clergy.Monks.271.009/015Cain Andrew476535JeromeSaint,-419 or 420.187193MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453897303321Jerome and the monastic clergy2444268UNINA
