vulgate
Accepted standard text
A vulgate is a commonly accepted text or version of a work, especially one that has become standard through widespread use rather than official authorization.
The term implies a version that circulates among ordinary people: the vulgate text of Shakespeare's plays.
In textual criticism, vulgate often contrasts with scholarly or critical editions. (Capitalized Vulgate is the Latin Bible translation.)
