Vita De Sancto Hieronymo

1928Best.-Nr. 85377Cambridge MA: Cygnet Press 1928. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Hardcover. Very good/Glassine dust wrapper worn and chipped. Approximately 36 pages. In Latin. A biography of Saint Jerome that originally appeared in the 1497 edition of the saint's letters translated into Italian by Matteo da Ferrara. The first publication of the imprint undertaken "by a group of bookish enthusiasts chief among them being Mr. George Parker Winship" - Ransom. The text and woodcuts were derived from the 1497 edition of St. Jerome's Letters printed at Ferrara and the whole printed in Goudy's Italian Old Style. Jerome c. 342 - c. 347 - 30 September 420 also known as Jerome of Stridon was a Christian priest confessor theologian and historian; he is commonly known as Saint Jerome. He is best known for his translation of the Bible into Latin the translation that became known as the Vulgate and his commentaries on the whole Bible. Jerome attempted to create a translation of the Old Testament based on a Hebrew version rather than the Septuagint as Latin Bible translations used to be performed before him. His list of writings is extensive and beside his biblical works he wrote polemical and historical essays always from a theologian's perspective. Jerome was known for his teachings on Christian moral life especially to those living in cosmopolitan centers such as Rome. He focused his attention on the lives of women and identified how a woman devoted to Jesus should live her life. This focus stemmed from his close patron relationships with several prominent female ascetics who were members of affluent senatorial families. Due to Jerome's work he is recognized as a saint and Doctor of the Church by the Catholic Church. Jerome was a scholar at a time when that statement implied a fluency in Greek. He knew some Hebrew when he started his translation project but moved to Jerusalem to strengthen his grip on Jewish scripture commentary. A wealthy Roman aristocrat Paula funded his stay in a monastery in Bethlehem and he completed his translation there. He began in 382 by correcting the existing Latin-language version of the New Testament commonly referred to as the Vetus Latina. By 390 he turned to translating the Hebrew Bible from the original Hebrew having previously translated portions from the Septuagint which came from Alexandria. He believed that the mainstream Rabbinical Judaism had rejected the Septuagint as invalid Jewish scriptural texts because of what were ascertained as mistranslations along with its Hellenistic heretical elements. He completed this work by 405. Prior to Jerome's Vulgate all Latin translations of the Old Testament were based on the Septuagint not the Hebrew. Jerome's decision to use a Hebrew text instead of the previous-translated Septuagint went against the advice of most other Christians including Augustine who thought the Septuagint inspired. Modern scholarship however has sometimes cast doubts on the actual quality of Jerome's Hebrew knowledge. Many modern scholars believe that the Greek Hexapla is the main source for Jerome's "iuxta Hebraeos" i.e. "close to the Hebrews" "immediately following the Hebrews" translation of the Old Testament. However detailed studies have shown that to a considerable degree Jerome was a competent Hebraist. George Parker Winship 29 July 1871 - 22 June 1952 was an American librarian author teacher and bibliographer born in Bridgewater Massachusetts. He graduated from Harvard in 1893. Went from the Somerville Latin School to Harvard College where he received an A.B cum laude in 1893 and an A.M. in 1894. He was librarian of a private collection of Americana formed by John Carter Brown at Providence Rhode Island from 1895 to 1915. Winship's interest in contemporary fine printing was to some extent connected with the Club of Odd Volumes in Boston of which he became a non-resident member in 1898. Winship was also elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1899. In 1915 Winship became librarian of the Harry Elkins Widener collection which had just opened. He was also appointed a lecturer on the history of printing and championed the use of rare books in education. In 1926 he became Assistant Librarian of Widener's Treasure Room which held Harvard's most precious rare books and manuscripts. Winship remained at Harvard until his retirement in 1936; he died in 1952. Winship was a scholar as well as a librarian. He edited a number of historical works and published: The Coronado Expedition 1896; John Cabot 1898; Geoffrey Chaucer 1900; Cabot Bibliography 1900; William Caxton 1909; Printing in South America 1912; and The John Carter Brown Library 1914.
