A different translation than Schaff, and this includes *all* of his letters, as opposed to a selection. Check it out.

Gabe, I bid on the Fathers of the Church Series which includes these letters. Do you have any idea about the translation differences?

The one on CP will be a little more "fancy" in its English.

If you don't mind a rogue Lutheran interjecting... Both are online, I think. The old set on CP would be http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/index.htm#Ambrose_of_Milan and the newer Fathers of the Church is https://archive.org/details/fathersofthechur009936mbp . Part of me doubts the Fathers of the Church should be on Internet Archive, but it is somehow.

So Gabe, will we be able to run text compare, compare versions etc. on the various translations of the Church Fathers? If Bob P. really wants Noet to succeed, it seems that we should be able to.

Just so you know, you're one of my favorites on the forum.

Hmm... I'm rethinking my prepub order now. [;)]

The copyright notice on that volume is dated 1954 and this page about copyright expiration notes that:

Published from 1923 to 1963 - When published with a copyright notice © or "Copyright [dates] by [author/owner]" - copyright protection lasts 28 years and could be renewed for an additional 67 years for a total of 95 years. If not renewed, now in public domain.

I'm assuming that because Logos has it on prepub, they must know it is not PD.

Right, even though a lot of these volumes were done before '63, they are, in fact, still under copyright.

I think that's a feature/tool worth exploring. Beyond adding more and more books, one of my main goals is to create a lot of unique content for Lexham/Logos that serves the liturgical/patristic users specifically, and with unique approaches for each tradition.

In case someone hasn't noticed, this CP is closing this Friday.
