About this Item

Title

  • Kaiser Konstantin als Leser : Panegyrik, Performance und Poetologie in den carmina Optatians

Summary

  • "To honor the 20th year of his reign, Emperor Constantine was given what may be the most precious gift of his lifetime: a codex of artistic panegyrics and odes dedicated to him by the poet Optatianus. Optatianus' poems showcase the poetic talent of their creator and go beyond the classical confines of a panegyric: they form a literary invitation to an intellectual bond between laudator and laudandus."-- Publisher's website.
