Adalbert Hamman
Adalbert-Gautier Hamman (1910 – 10 July 2000) was a French Franciscan priest. His main achievement was the publication of nearly one hundred translations of patristic texts in French, in the collection known as Les Pères dans la foi, although a complete bibliographical description would extend much further.[1] His liturgical and social writings contributed to the mental climate of the second Vatican Council.
