Women are both implicitly and explicitly portrayed in Jerome's letters, in that they are the addressees of some of the epistles and they are praised in many others of them. The culture these women are endowed with by their mentor is a theme belonging to the classical tradition of panegyric, but it is also rooted in the Christian cultural environment they (and their mentor) belong to.

Abstract

Women are both implicitly and explicitly portrayed in Jerome's letters, in that they are the addressees of some of the epistles and they are praised in many others of them. The culture these women are endowed with by their mentor is a theme belonging to the classical tradition of panegyric, but it is also rooted in the Christian cultural environment they (and their mentor) belong to.
