The Department of Professional and Intercultural Communication invites you to a guest lecture with Professor Gary Massey from the ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences and Associate Professor Erik Angelone from the Kent State University.
St. Jerome was a 4th-century religious scholar, biblical translator and monastic leader. He is considered to be the “guardian angel” of translators since he was one of the first major reputable translators in our cultural sphere. He is known particularly for his translation of the Old Testament from Hebrew into Latin, creating the template for the Roman Catholic Church's Vulgate bible.
His feast day September 30 is marked each year by translator environments worldwide.
