Edgar, Swift (Ed.). The Vulgate Bible, Vol. I: The Pentateuch. Douay-Rheims Translation. [Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library.] (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press. 2010. Pp. xxxvi, 1152. $29.95.) “The Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library presents a reconstructed Latin text of the lost Bible used by the professors at Douay and Rheims, and [Richard] Challoner’s revision of the English translation faces the Latin. Challoner’s text . . . sometimes reflects the Sixto-Clementine Bible more closely than did the English College translations of 1582, 1609, and 1610, but many of the revision’s features are not at all related to the Sixto-Clementine Bible, and some lead the translation even further from the Latin” (p. ix). The introduction includes disquisitions on the Latin text and the English text of this edition and a note on the translation. This volume is the first of five projected volumes in a complete set of the Vulgate Bible.
