About Roger Pearse
- I went to Merton College, Oxford.
- My main current project is the Additional
Fathers collection of out-of-copyright English translations of the
fathers not otherwise online.
- I'm also interested in manuscripts and the transmission of texts
from antiquity. I'm very interested in ways to get medieval and
ancient manuscripts online.
- I collect joke books. And Fred Bassett books. I'd love to be able to
cartoon - I have a visual imagination - but I'm never going to have the time.
- I'm a Christian.
- I've been to Egypt six times so far, and am interested in Egyptology and the ancient
world.
- My leisure reading includes a lot of science-fantasy novels, and a certain amount of verse. I
won't threaten to read my verse at you! I'm also a compulsive reader
of patrologies -- handbooks of early Christian writers.
