| Summary: | The Latin Jonah’s commentary by Jerome of Stridon (396 A.D.) is, alongside the Greek commentary by Theodor of Mopsuestia, the earliest surviving commentary that fully comments on the entire Book of Jonah. It follows the Biblical text without omission from the first to the last verse, conforming itself in its structure and articulation to his own “pre-text.” In this respect, it is an example of a late antique Christian “heteronomous text.” With the three ele- ments pretext, reader community and commentary, the article takes a look at the cornerstones of a triangular relationship within which Jerome acts and communicates. The biblical Book of Jonah is the pretext, for which Jerome’ Jonah Commentary forms the heteronomous meta or paratext; the reader community refers to the readers of the biblical Book of Jonah at the time in question. Jerome himself is perceived in this article as an autonomous author who—in his self-understanding depending on the work of the Holy Spirit—consciously develops strategies with which he can make understandable the canonical Book of Jonah for contemporary readers. |
