Abstract

The first sentence of Jerome’s first letter to Paula contains a
passage which translators have hitherto misunderstood (Epist. 30, 1).
The present note endeavours to clarify the problem by adducing a
passage of Marius Victorinus’ commentary on Cicero’s De inventione
(1, 34, 58-9). Comparison of these passages of Victorinus and Jerome
illustrates some typical features of the latter’s compositional and
self-imitatory technique.
