VALLARSI, DOMENICO. - Priest and scholar, b. in Verona on 13 Nov. 1702, d. there on 14 Aug. 1771.
His principal work is the edition of the writings of St. Jerome (11 vols., Verona 1734-42; 2nd enlarged ed., Venice 1766-72, reproduced in PL 22-30), for which he sought out codices in various cities of Italy. He assisted Scipione Maffei in the edition of the works of St. Hilary (2 vols., Verona 1730) and published a volume of the writings of Rufinus (ibid. 1745).
A collector of codices and antiquities, which he donated to the Museum of Verona, he was "flayed" by Baretti on account of a supposed inscription of Sts. Fermo and Rustico that he illustrated.
He held several canonries and was appointed by Benedict XIV as reviser of the Holy Office for the Oriental languages.
