After three years of preparation, the conference Jerome of Stridon: Religion, Culture, Society and Literature in Late Antiquity took place at Cardiff University in Wales from 13 to 16 July 2006. over seventy scholars from around the world attended, making it the largest and most diverse gathering of its kind ever assembled for the sole purpose of discussing the latest research on Jerome. nearly three dozen papers were delivered by internationally renowned scholars from eleven different countries. this volume contains the best of these papers. the conference was the major outcome of a close and many-faceted collaborative relationship between the CCaarrddiiffff UUnniivveerrssiittyy CCeennttrree ffoorr LLaattee AAnnttiiqquuee rreelliiggiioonn aanndd Culture and the ddeeppaarrttmmeenntt ooff CCllaassssiiccss aatt tthhee UUnniivveerrssiittyy ooff CCoolloorraaddoo aatt BBoouullddeerr.. For their support in varying capacities we would like to express our gratitude to a number of colleagues at our home institutions and elsewhere: Nicholas Baker- Brian, Gillian Clark, Ken Donovan, Andrew Edgar, Noel Lenski, John North, David Scourfield, Richard Thomas, Shaun Tougher and John Watt. Tthhee ccoonnffeerreennccee and its corresponding volume have been made possible by generous financial support from the following foundations and institutions: tthhee LLLoooeeebbb CCClllaaassssssiiicccaaalll LLLiiibbbrrraaarrryyy foundation at Harvard University; tthhee CCaarrddiiffff UUnniivveerrssiittyy SScchhooooll ooff rreelliiggiioouuss aanndd theological Studies and the School of History and Archaeology; the department of Classics at the University of Colorado; tthhee GGrraadduuaattee CCoommmmiitttteeee oonn tthhee AArrttss aanndd Humanities at the University of Colorado;; aanndd tthhee BBrriittiisshh AAccaaddeemmyy.. This book, like the conference itself, has been a group effort. The contributors deserve recognition for being agreeable to the (sometimes substantial) revisions they were asked to make to their papers. Special thanks are due to John Smedley, our editor at Ashgate, for supporting this project so enthusiastically from its inception. We also wish to thank Nick Wain and his production team at the press for guiding the manuscript expertly to completion We end now on a sad note. Yves-marie duval, who had commandeered his own conference on Jerome (Chantilly, 1986) and who had been a featured speaker at our 2006 conference, passed away on 12 march 2007. the impact he had on the study of Jerome over the course of four decades is incalculable. He died before completing the revisions for his paper, and Benoît Jeanjean kindly stepped in to finish the work so that the paper could be included here. This volume is dedicated to Yves-marie in loving memory.
