Support the Translation

The Patrologia has never been Englished, and at 387 volumes it never will be by hand. This site translates it work by work: the map of every column is built and citable; what remains is a compute bill. Contributions go directly to the queue — 73 authors with no English in 180 years.

Migne ran his press as a funded enterprise; the translation runs the same way. Everything here is free and stays free whether you give or not. Wroot Press is a small independent press — an imprint of Wroot Labs LLC, not a charity. Contributions aren't tax-deductible; they buy compute.
