THE SCRIPTORIUM PROJECT

D.P. Curtin

D.P. Curtin is an Irish-American antiquarian and translator. He grew up in Richboro, PA and attended local parochial schools in Warminster and Southampton, PA. To date he has translated over six hundred texts relating to the development of the Western World between the 5th and 15th centuries. These works make-up the majority of texts in the Scriptorium Project's collection. The various manuscripts which he has handled are of sundry cultural provenance, including: Celtic, Gallic, Visigothic, Punic, Nubian, Nordic, Slavic, Ethiopian, Coptic, Celtic, German, Armenian, Arabic, Byzantine, Syriac, Anglo-Saxon, and Georgian.

This work began as an undergraduate student at Villanova University, within the special collections at the (Old) Falvey Memorial Library, which then housed a considerable Latin & Greek patristics collection. Originally under the tutelage of Fr. Thomas Martin OSA, the collection began as a small smattering of sundry works from Latin texts, but has subsequently.

To date he has obtained his BA from Villanova University in 2007 in Theological Studies, a Masters degree from Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia, PA in 2014, and a doctoral degree from Chatham University in Pittsburgh, PA in 2024.
