Saint Jerome is a book written by Augustin Largent and published in 1913. It is a biography of Saint Jerome, one of the most important figures in early Christianity. Jerome was a scholar, theologian, and translator, known for his translation of the Bible into Latin (the Vulgate). Largent's book tells the story of Jerome's life, from his birth in Dalmatia (modern-day Croatia) in the 4th century to his death in Bethlehem in 420 AD. It covers his education, his travels, his work as a translator and theologian, and his relationships with other important figures of his time, such as Saint Augustine. The book also explores the historical and cultural context in which Jerome lived, including the debates and controversies that dominated the early Christian Church.
