A reader of the epyllion by Dracontius, the elegy by Maximianus, and the epigram by Luxorius should not expect that these works--and these new embodiments of the 'old' genres--will be wholly identical with their 'archetypes'. Were it so, it would mean that we read but second-rate versifiers, indeed. We may expect rather that thanks to the reading of Dracontius's epyllion, Maximianus's elegy, and Luxorius's epigram our understanding of these very genres may become fuller and deeper than if it was narrowed only to the study of the 'classical phase' of the Roman literature. Therefore, I have decided to employ in the title of my book the expression genres rediscovered. I have found it fair to emphasize that the poets whose works have been studied here merit appreciation for their creativity, and indeed courage, in reusing and reinterpreting the classical--and truly classic--literary heritage. In addition, I have found it similarly fair to stress that for the students of Latin literature the borderline between the 'classical' and the 'post-classical' is, and should be, flexible. It is not my intention of course to imply that aesthetic and poetological differences should be ignored or blurred. Quite the reverse, these differences are profound and multidimensional and as such must be properly understood and explained. The main issue is the fact that studies of Latin literature--or rather of literature in general - and especially generic studies require a proper, i.e. diachronic, perspective. A description of a certain genre based merely on its most important or generally known representative/representatives will always risk becoming incomplete and limited. In genology, one must be utterly prudent in defining the 'main' and the 'marginal', the 'relevant' and the 'negligible'. In this sense, an insight into a few genres practiced by some 'classical'--and classic--Roman poets from the perspective of their 'post-classical' followers may be, also for a genologist, an intriguing rediscovery.

M. Fabius Quintilianus was a prominent orator, declaimer, and teacher of eloquence in the first century CE. After his retirement, he wrote the Institutio oratoria, a unique treatise in antiquity because it is both a handbook of rhetoric and an educational treatise. Quintilian's fame and influence are not only based on the Institutio, but also on the two collections of Declamations which were later attributed to him. The Oxford Handbook of Quintilian aims to present Quintilian's Institutio as a key treatise in the history of Greco-Roman rhetoric and to trace its influence on the theory and practice of rhetoric and education up to the present day. Topics include Quintilian's educational programme, his concepts and classifications of rhetoric, his discussion of the five canons of rhetoric, his style, his views on literary criticism, declamation, and the relationship between rhetoric and law, and the importance of the visual and performing arts in his work. His legacy is presented in successive chapters devoted to Quintilian in late antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Italian Renaissance, Northern Europe during the Renaissance, Europe from the eighteenth to the twentieth century, and the United States of America. Other chapters examine the biographical tradition, the history of printed editions, and modern assessments of Quintilian. The contributors represent a wide range of expertise and scholarly traditions, offering a unique, multidisciplinary perspective.

Educated in Platonic philosophy rather than the military arts, the Ostrogothic king Theodahad was never meant to rule. His unexpected nomination as co-regent by his cousin Queen Amalasuintha plunged him into the intrigues of the Gothic court, and Theodahad soon conspired to assassinate the queen. But, once alone on the throne, his lack of political experience and military skill made him ineffective at best and dangerously incompetent at worst. Defeated by the Byzantine emperor Justinian, Theodahad was killed by his own subjects. In Theodahad, Massimiliano Vitiello rigorously investigates the ancient sources in order to reconstruct the events of Theodahad's life and the contours of sixth-century diplomacy and political intrigues. Painting a picture of an unlikely king whose reign helped spell the end of Ostrogothic Italy, Vitiello's book not only illuminates Theodahad's own life but also offers new insight into the sixth-century Mediterranean world.

The Encyclopedia of the Early Church is a two-volume reference work providing concise and precise information on all topics concerning the first eight centuries of Christianity. Valuable to historians, archaeologists, philosophers, and philologists as well as theologians, this work extends the knowledge of how Christianity evolved to become the most important influence in the history of Western civilization. Tracing the growth of the church from its tiny beginnings in an upper room to its dominance of Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa in the eighth century, scholars from many disciplines produced articles ranging from a few sentences to ten thousand words on all the major and most of the minor people, works, ideas, and issues of the formative period of Christianity. The first major encyclopedia to cover the life, thought, and growth of Christianity, this work offers full treatment of doctrines, creeds, and heresies, of iconography and art history, of archaeology and geography, and of monasticism and asceticism.

Der Mailänder Diakon Ennodius (er wurde ca. 513 Bischof von Pavia) hat ein vielfältiges Werk hinterlassen, das zunächst vorgestellt wird (u.a. christliche Hymnen und einen Panegyricus auf Theoderich). Die bisher übersehene Tatsache, dass er früher als Redner und Dichter aufgetreten ist und eventuell auch Lehrer war, kann erklären, warum er die Angehörigen der römischen Oberschicht so intensiv dazu auffordert, sich um Bildung zu bemühen, und dass er sich als Tutor um einige Jungen kümmert. Dabei spricht er von einer Spannung zwischen seiner Tätigkeit als Diakon und seiner Begeisterung für die eloquentia. Seine Briefe an Verwandte, an weltliche und kirchliche Amtsträger (z.B. den Papst) werden in die Tradition der Gattung eingeordnet und mit denen anderer Epistolographen verglichen. Bisher war nicht aufgefallen, dass er sich je nach Adressat und Situation in ganz verschiedenen Rollen präsentiert: nur selten als demütig-frommer Diakon, viel häufiger als ungeduldiger und vorwurfsvoller Freund bzw. Verwandter. Anders als bisher angenommen ahmt er nicht die freundlichen Briefe des Symmachus nach, sondern gibt sich häufig geradezu wie ein Anti-Symmachus, wobei er mit den Konventionen und Motiven der Gattung „Brief“ sehr selbstbewusst und häufig in überraschender Weise umgeht.

English summary: When Christianity became a religio licita, it gradually assumed various functions in the Roman state, and profited from this. In four individual studies, Richard Klein attempts to show which functions the church assumed in politics, the economy and in social services. In the first study, he deals with the relevance of the episcopate for the state. In the second study, he questions whether the care given to the population was motivated by pagan generosity (one only has to think of bread and circuses) or by Christian love of one's neighbor. In doing so, he focuses on Constantine's period of office. In the third study, he shows how versatile and different the church's social activities were in late antiquity. He concludes with a case study of Ennodius. The works of the Bishop of Pavia show clearly how the concept of slavery changed. German description: Als das Christentum eine religio licita geworden war und begann, die alte Religion zu verdrangen, ubernahm die ehemals verfolgte Kirche im romischen Staat nach und nach verschiedene Aufgaben und profitierte, z.B. durch Erbschaften, davon. Welche Aufgaben sie nun in Politik, Wirtschaft und im sozialen Bereich ubernahm, versucht Richard Klein anhand von vier Fallstudien darzustellen. In der ersten zeichnet er die Entwicklung des Bischofsamtes in seiner Bedeutung fur die Gesellschaft nach. Die Bischofe ubernahmen dabei eine Vielzahl staatlicher Aufgaben und konnten im Gegenzug staatliche Dienstleistungen wie die Reise mit der Staatspost in Anspruch nehmen. In der zweiten Studie wird die Frage gestellt, ob die Sorge fur die Bevolkerung durch pagane Freigebigkeit (man denke nur an Brot und Spiele) oder durch christliche Nachstenliebe motiviert war. Das Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der Person und Regierungszeit von Kaiser Konstantin. Wie vielgestaltig und unterschiedlich das soziale Wirken der Kirche in der Spatantike war, behandelt Richard Klein in der dritten Studie. Es beschrankte sich nicht auf die Versorgung der Armen, sondern reichte bis zur rechtsgultigen Freilassung von Sklaven innerhalb der Kirche. Den Abschluss bildet eine Fallstudie uber Ennodius, den Bischof von Pavia. An seinem Werk wird deutlich, wie sich das Bild der Sklaverei und der Umgang mit Sklaven wandelten. Obwohl diese Instititution in der christlichen Spatantike und daruber hinaus existierte, ist der Stand der Sklaven doch deutlich aufgewertet worden. Ein Namen- und Sachregister sowie ein Stellenverzeichnis erganzen die Monographie.
