Medieval History
Members of the Harvard community gathered yesterday in the Barker Center to celebrate the inauguration of the Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library, a new translation series produced and distributed by Harvard University Press that will make the written achievements of medieval cultures more readily available to scholars and general readers in the English-speaking world.
The Medieval Library formally debuts with the publication of three works: a volume containing two separate manuscripts of secular Latin poetry, the full ?Beowulf? manuscript, and The Pentateuch of Saint Jerome?s Latin translation of the Bible paired with the 17th century Douay-Rheims translation.
Three more volumes are scheduled to be published later in the spring.
