Donatus

Donatus (fl. 4th century AD), full name Aelius Donatus, was a Latin grammarian and rhetorician, the teacher of St. Jerome. He was the author of treatises in grammar known as Donats, and, along with the sacred Scriptures, the earliest examples of printing by means of letters cut on wooden blocks, and so appreciated as elementary treatises that they gave name to treatises of the kind on any subject. He wrote also scholia to the plays of Terence.
