LATI 3200
Latin Bible
Course Description
Readings from the Latin Bible, beginning with selections from narrative books (e.g., Genesis, Acts) and progressing to more elaborate and poetic portions (e.g. Psalms, Job, Song of Songs). Readings will be taken mainly from the Vulgate, but we will look briefly at the Old Latin versions and at modern English translations. We will also consider some medieval Bible manuscripts, including several in Special Collections at UVA.
