This is the personal website of Professor Hugh Houghton.

It offers links to the PDF versions of my publications which I am permitted to post on a personal website. These include writings on the Greek and Latin New Testament, biblical manuscripts, quotations of the New Testament in early Christian writers and book reviews.

There are also links to full-text electronic transcriptions of New Testament manuscripts on which I have collaborated. Details are given of some of the funded research projects which I have led, including the European Research Council-funded COMPAUL project and the Workspace for Collaborative Editing supported by the AHRC and DFG.

News associated with my book, The Latin New Testament. A Guide to its Early History, Texts, and Manuscripts, is found here, including lists of updates and corrigenda. There is also a page of corrigenda to the outputs of the Codex Zacynthius Project.

For other information about my research, please visit my University of Birmingham webpage

Finally, if you are interested in my English translation of Carmina Burana with notes on the Latin text, here are links to the full version (with footnotes) and the text only.
