SUMMARY: Two Petrarch’s letters (Familiares IV 15 and 16) are commonly taken into account
for their autobiographical and apologetic aspects. The present article places them into the debate
about the limits and characteristics of the academic knowledge (represented by the great jurist
Giovanni d’Andrea) and its relationships with the new humanistic culture, with its myths and
its models. Petrarch’s discussion and comparison between St Jerome and St Augustine has to
be considered in this context: the two Fathers stand for two well-defined and basically opposite
ideas of culture. In its Hieronymianus (BHL 3876), a multipurpose work, which is not only a
hagiography or a florilegium, Giovanni d’Andrea shapes an image of St Jerome’s holiness and
lays down methods and areas of its use for different purposes, from popular devotion to theology
and to juridical culture. Attention is focused on the fourth section of the Hieronymianus,
which has a particular importance in the textual history of Jerome’s work.
