Bonifaci Ferrer

Boniface Ferrer[1] (1350–1417) was a Carthusian monk, brother of Saint Vincent Ferrer, and translator of the first Bible into Valencian (Valencian Bible 1488).

His translation was the first translation into a Romance language (Catalan) since Peter Waldo's translation into Provençal.[2]
