Previously, I worked on Saint Augustine and his use of substantia in heresiological debates, more precisely Manichaean and Arian. Now I am studying the uses of this term in the Latin Church Fathers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What do you do at EBAF?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The BEST programme intends to make the biblical polyphony heard by highlighting the nuances specific to each tradition. Made aware of the importance of the Latin language in the structuring of Christian thought, I am given the opportunity to work as a research assistant on the project, revising and enriching the translations of the Vulgate prepared by my predecessors. For me, whose entire intellectual life is bilingual, and in fact trilingual with Latin, this is exciting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is your Philosophy of Translation?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If translating is the condition of possibility of understanding among men, because there is no human relationship without a certain understanding, nor understanding without a common language, a translation can also be perceived as a betrayal or as a violence when, for example, a powerful group imposes its language on the others, translating being no longer a matter of sharing but of subjugation.<br>BEST does not envisage translation negatively. Rather than considering translation as a way to remedy the confusio linguarum, it is based on a positive conception of the plurality of languages and versions.<br>Moreover, the project does not approach translation as a conquest by a power that would impose its unique language: diversity of languages does not amount to schisms! Certainly, the episode of the Tower of Babel is known to have led to the diversity of languages, but we cannot forget that there is a language that unites them all, the very language that Augustine calls charity (See St. <em>Augustin, Homilies on the Gospel According to John&nbsp;VI, 10 (BA, 71, p. 35)<\/em>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For several years now, biblical scholars have been rediscovering the importance of the Old Latin versions and the Vulgate. &#8220;Divine Election in the Latin Bible&#8221; Taking advantage of the presence of the Rev.
