| Summary: | This is a manual for scholars and students of the first translations of the New Testament into Latin. It provides a guide to standard resources on the subject, as well as a general introduction, a summary of current research, a catalogue of manuscripts and online images, and an extensive bibliography. "In The Latin New Testament, H.A.G. Houghton provides a comprehensive introduction to the history and development of the Latin New Testament. Drawing on major editions and recent advances in scholarship, he offers a new synthesis which brings together evidence from Christian authors and biblical manuscripts from earliest times to the late Middle Ages. All manuscripts identified as containing Old Latin evidence for the New Testament are described in a catalogue, along with those featured in the two principal modern editions of the Vulgate. A user's guide is provided for these editions and the other key scholarly tools for studying the Latin New Testament."--Publisher description |
