Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the enigma surrounding the identity of the translator of a Greek-Venetian version of the Old Testament from the original Hebrew. The author meticulously analyzes various clues within the manuscript, including unique marginalia, the order of the text, and specific division of lines, to propose the remarkable theory that the translator may have been Simone Atumano, a Greek monk and later Archbishop of Thebes.
