Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the poetic repertoire of Dracontius, an African author from the 5th and 6th centuries. Not much is known about his life, but his works offer an invaluable window into the religious, political, and literary landscapes of the late Roman Empire. Dracontius's writings, spanning from pagan epics to Christian panegyrics, reveal a transformative journey as he navigates the transition from Roman rule to the emergence of Vandal power in North Africa. The book analyzes the unique blend of themes and stylistic elements in Dracontius's poetry. The author traces pagan influences alongside the profound impact of his Christian faith, examining how these diverse currents merge within his literary corpus. Furthermore, the book sheds light on Dracontius's exceptional talent for employing classical literary techniques while infusing his works with a distinct Christian sensibility, making him a pivotal figure in the convergence of classical and Christian traditions during Late Antiquity.
