#13 – The Christmas Story x2 (Vulgate and Sebastien Châteillon) | Latin literature
The Christmas Story in Latin from the Vulgate is quite familiar to most
students and teachers of Latin. This, however, is not the only Latin
version of the story from the New Testament, for in 1551 the French
humanist, Sébastien Châteillon, published his new translation of the Bible.
Contrary to the Latin translation penned by St. Jerome in the 4th century,
Châteillon’s version was written in a style much closer to that of
Classical Latin. This post gives both texts as well as a recording of the
two, for easy comparison of the two versions of the Christmas Story.
