Hello!
I am the editor of the Tertullian Project, a peer-reviewed academic site dedicated to the ancient author Tertullian. I am also the editor of the Additional Fathers collection of English translations of the Fathers of the Church, designed to complement the 19th century 38-volume collection The Ante-Nicene, Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers.
My aims are simple: to get translations of ancient texts into the hands of those who want to read them. A lot of people don't realise what is available, or that ordinary people can read these things. But you can! Indeed these days very many texts concerned with the early church or the classical world are available in English and on the web. There's nothing quite like going to the sources to be sure that your facts are right!
Not all ancient texts exist in English. I've started a small academic publishing house to do something about this, and to get more of them turned into English. At the moment I get to do the editing work on these books -- hard work, I can tell you! -- plus the endless chasing around that is involved in any project of this kind. Let's hope that will change over time. I have four books on the list to publish at the moment, which should keep me busy!
I'm glad you took at look at this. If you're interested in sources, if you want to know what actually happened, what those who were there at the time said, do come along to my blog, which is all about these same things!
