Abstract

This article traces the problematic editorial work of the Oxford scientist and scholar Edward Bernard (1638-1697) in editing Josephus, and draws out the implications of this story for our understanding of the scholarly and polemical contexts within which Josephus was studied in the late seventeenth century.
