Peristephanon : ウィキペディア英語版 | Prudentius
Aurelius Prudentius Clemens was a Roman Christian poet, born in the Roman province of Tarraconensis (now Northern Spain) in 348.〔H. J. Rose, ''A Handbook of Classical Literature'' (1967) p. 508〕 He probably died in the Iberian Peninsula some time after 405, possibly around 413. The place of his birth is uncertain, but it may have been Caesaraugusta (Saragossa), Tarraco (Tarragona), or Calagurris (Calahorra). ==Life== Prudentius practised law with some success, and was twice provincial governor, perhaps in his native country, before the emperor Theodosius I summoned him to court. Towards the end of his life (possibly around 392) Prudentius retired from public life to become an ascetic, fasting until evening and abstaining entirely from animal food; and writing poems, hymns, and controversial works in defence of Catholicism.〔H. J. Rose, ''A Handbook of Classical Literature'' (1967) p. 508-9〕 Prudentius later collected the Christian poems written during this period and added a preface, which he himself dated 405.
