It analyses both his rhetoric and his descriptions of \u003ci\u003erealia\u003c\/i\u003e, and the way he combines classical, Christian and Jewish sources to re-write the biblical Holy Land as a new and Christian world for his readers. \u003cbr\u003eSusan Weingarten looks at how Jerome dovetails his literary sources with his experience of the material world of the fourth century to write the \u003ci\u003eLives\u003c\/i\u003e of the saints Paul, Hilarion, Malchus and Paula, effectively using them to write the \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e of Saint Jerome.\u003cbr\u003eThis is the first full-length study of Jerome’s saints’ \u003ci\u003eLives\u003c\/i\u003e. It widens the on-going debate about mutual influences in Jewish and Christian literature in the fourth century, and revises our picture of the historical geography of Palestine.","brand":"Susan Weingarten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48307941376251,"sku":"9789004143876","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_6d0db7cf-fb14-4cd3-a46f-cb1a02d8a8ea.jpg?v=1774786232","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/the-saints-saints-9789004143876","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
