The Life Of Saint Jerome

The Life of Saint Jerome is a biography of the Christian theologian, historian, and translator Saint Jerome, written by Frate Matheo da Ferrara. The book provides a detailed account of Jerome's life, from his childhood in Dalmatia to his death in Bethlehem. It covers his education, his travels, his work as a translator of the Bible and other Christian texts, and his role in the controversies of his time.The biography portrays Jerome as a complex and sometimes difficult figure, known for his asceticism, his sharp tongue, and his fierce defense of orthodox Christian doctrine. It also explores the cultural and political context in which he lived, including the debates over the nature of Christ and the role of women in the church.Overall, The Life of Saint Jerome offers a rich and nuanced portrait of one of the most important figures in early Christianity, and sheds light on the intellectual and spiritual currents of his time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
