Overview

Q. Avrelii Symmachi Qvae Svpersvnt... presents the extant works of Quintus Aurelius Symmachus, a prominent Roman statesman, orator, and man of letters during the late fourth century CE. This collection offers invaluable insights into the political, social, and intellectual life of a pivotal era in Roman history, as the Western Roman Empire faced increasing pressures and Christianity rose to prominence. Symmachus's writings, including his letters and orations, reveal the perspective of a highly educated and influential member of the Roman aristocracy, grappling with the challenges of his time. His eloquent prose and thoughtful reflections on tradition, governance, and the preservation of classical culture provide a unique window into the concerns and values of the Roman elite during a period of profound transformation. This volume is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in Roman history, classical literature, and the intellectual history of Late Antiquity.
