	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: John Trevisa
		John Trevisa (1326 - 1412), translator, was a Cornishman, educated at Oxford, was Vicar of Berkeley, Gloucestershire, and chaplain to the 4th Lord Berkeley, and Canon of Westbury.
		John of Trevisa, sometimes called John de Trevisa or John Trevisa, a contemporary of Chaucer, was born c.1342 in Trevessa, Cornwall, and died in 1402.
		Trevisa is well known to students of Middle English for his description of the state of the English Language in the year 1385 which he inserted into his translation of the Polychronicon.

	§3. John Trevisa. III. The Beginnings of English Prose. Vol. 2. The End of the Middle Ages. The Cambridge History ...
		John Trevisa, a Cornishman, had made himself somewhat notorious at Oxford.
		Royal commissions were disregarded till 1380, when Trevisa and his companions at length gave up their plunder.
		At some earlier date, Trevisa had travelled, for he incidentally mentions his experiences at Breisach on the Rhine, Aachen and Aix-les-Bains, but he had not seen Rome.

	5ch1
		John Trevisa was born in Cornwall, studied at Oxford University, and, having come to the attention of the Berkeley family, he was instituted vicar of Berkeley, a position he held until his death in 1402.
		Trevisa seemed in close harmony with those of the author of the "B" text of Piers the Plowman (who is separate in my mind from the author of the "A" text).
		Thus the attribution to Trevisa of the Pedigree of the Berkeley family, for example, which records the birth dates of children ending with the birth of John on 21 January 1351, is based on the assumption that he was already an educated adult attached to Lord Berkeley in the thirteen-fifties.

		John Trevisa explains that coralle is from the Red Sea, and is a tree under the water and turns to stone when it touches the air, and turns red (XVI.32).

		John Trevisa describes it at length, particularly the belief that it forms from permanently hardened ice.

	John Trevisa at AllExperts
		John Trevisa (1342 - 1402), translator, was a Cornishman, educated at Oxford,who became Vicar of Berkeley, Gloucestershire, chaplain to the 4th Lord Berkeley, and Canon of Westbury on Trym.
		He translated for his patron the Polychronicon of Ranulf Higden, adding remarks of his own, andprefacing it with a Dialogue on Translation between a Lord and a Clerk.He likewise made various other translations, including Bartholomaeus Anglicus' On the Properties of Things (De Proprietatibus Rerum), a medieval forerunner of the encyclopedia.
		A fellow of Queen's College, Oxford from 1372-76 at the same time as John Wycliff and Nicholas of Hereford, Trevisa may well have been one of the contributors to the Early Version of Wyclif's Bible.

	Various Translations Of The Bible
		It is generally held that the first translation of the Bible into English was made by John Wicliff, who was born at Wicliff in York-shire, and educated at Merton College in Oxford ; he translated it from the Latin Bibles then in use, as the Saxon versions had been done before.
		The same learned Benedictine also informs us that John Trevisa is supposed to be the first who translated the Bible into English, and that his translation was finished in the year 1357.
		This John Rogers was educated at Cambridge, and became acquainted with Tindal at Antwerp; but in Queen Mary's reign (being then in England) he was burnt on account of his printing that Bible.

	John Trevisa
		In other words, John Trevisa was at Queen’s College in the very years when his fellow Nicholas Hereford at least made a beginning on translating the Bible into English, and was seemingly still at the very centre of things when the translation (Wycliffe A) was finished by another hand, possibly his own.
		Trevisa was expelled (temporarily) from Queen’s College in 1378 by order of the king.22 This had to do with a certain colourful episode of Trevisa’s life and those of his fellows that space allows no discussion of.
		The weight of evidence that makes Trevisa answerable to such a charge is overwhelming, and it is astonishing that in the face of it modern scholars should still think of Purvey as the ‘culprit’ who did the deed.

	John Trevisa and William Tyndale
		Roughly a hundred years before Tyndale was born John Trevisa was chaplain to Thomas, Lord Berkeley, and also Vicar of Berkeley, which is in Gloucestershire close to where Tyndale was born and lived as a child.
		Tyndale’s opportunity to read Trevisa’s works was probably greatest when he was a child, and there is a possible reference to this in his writings.
		John Trevisa was a contemporary of John Wycliffe; they were at Queen’s College at Oxford together and were also prebendaries at Westbury-on-Trym at the same time.

	The Preface
		For the Grecians being desirous of learning, were not wont to suffer books of worth to lie moulding in Kings' libraries, but had many of their servants, ready scribes, to copy them out, and so they were dispersed and made common.
		Much about that time, even in our King Richard the second's days, John Trevisa translated them into English, and many English Bibles in written hand are yet to be seen with divers, translated as it is very probable, in that age.

		Come necessaria premessa, le due opere sono precedute da un'introduzione: in particolare, viene approfondita l'evoluzione dal concetto di glossa a quello di compilatio per quanto riguarda il De Proprietatibus Rerum, mentre si delinea la situazione della prosa e della traduzione scientifica e informativa per quel che concerne On The Properties of Things.
		La parte inerente al dato testuale, che rappresenta l'oggetto di maggiore interesse, intende individuare e analizzare alcune peculiarità della traduzione di Trevisa dal punto di vista lessicale e mira, dal punto di vista sintattico, ad uno studio puntuale e sistematico della resa in inglese medioevale di alcune strutture latine significative.
		Le conclusioni, nfine, ripropongono in modo organico le considerazioni formulate nel corso dello studio e la valutazione della traduzione di Trevisa in rapporto alle nozioni di chiarezza e fedeltà elaborate dall'autore stesso e al contesto sociale e culturale in cui la traduzione si pone.
