Ce volume contient le texte latin et la traduction moderne de la Vie de saint Jérôme d'Erasme. Érasme écrit la Vie de saint Jérôme en guise de prologue aux Œuvres complètes du saint qui paraîtront pour la première fois en 1516 chez Johann Froben à Bâle. Nouveau Jérôme, il rédige cette biographie, souvent considérée comme un autoportrait, à partir des écrits du Père de l'Église. Ce formidable essai de critique historique fera date car il fait fi de la tradition hagiographique. Dans la seconde partie du texte, Érasme attaque les Cicéroniens, adeptes d'un radical retour à la pureté antique de la langue latine. Il y esquisse les thèmes principaux de son pamphlet sur la question, qui verra le jour en 1527. Traduit, annoté et mis en contexte par André Godin (CNRS), spécialiste des influences patristiques chez Érasme, le texte latin est édité par Alexandre Vanautgaerden (Bibliothèque de Genève).

Since its publication in 1951, The Catcher in the Rye has been a cultural phenomenon, not only as an assigned text for English courses, but as a touchstone for generations of alienated youth. But who was J.D. Salinger, and how did he come to write a novel whose impact continues to resonate with millions of readers? In J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye: A Cultural History, Josef Benson examines the legacy of an elusive author and his work. After exploring how the novel reflected Salinger’s tortured psyche, Benson discusses how the book made an impact on generations of readers—from 1960s counter-culture youth and followers of the Black Power movement of the 1970s to the disenfranchised teens of the Reagan era and the celebrity-fixated masses of the present day. In addition, Benson unravels the mystery behind Salinger’s reclusiveness, the effects the novel had on the reading public who adored it, and why three American assassins cited the novel as an inspiration. J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye also considers why this work of fiction has been among the most widely taught—and most frequently banned—books of all time. By looking at the novel as both an artifact of the 1950s as well as a living testament to the turmoil of teenage angst, this book provides a riveting discussion of one of the most enigmatic novels and authors of all time.
