Abstract

A professing pagan in an aggressively Christian empire, a friend of the emperor Julian and acquaintance of St. Basil, a potent spokesman for private and political causes -- Libanius can tell us much more about the tumultuous world of the fourth century. Born in Antioch to a wealthy family steeped in the culture and religious traditions of Hellenism, Libanius rose to fame as a teacher of the classics in a period of rapid social change. In his lifetime Libanius was an acknowledged master of the art of letter writing. Today his letters -- about 1550 of which survive -- offer an enthralling self-portrait of this combative pagan publicist and a vivid picture of the culture and political intrigues of the eastern empire. A.F. Norman selects one eighth of the extant letters, which come from two periods in Libanius' life, AD 355-365 and 388-393 -- letters written to Julian, churchmen, civil officials, scholars, and his many influential friends. The letters are complemented, in this two-volume edition, by Libanius' Autobiography (Oration I), a revealing narrative that begins as a scholar's account and ends as an old man's private journal.

Abstract

Les lettres de Grégoire le Grand rassemblées dans les livres XII à XIV - les derniers de sa correspondance - retracent la fin de son pontificat, de septembre 601 au 12 mars 604, date de sa mort. Relations avec les souverains, successions épiscopales, enquête sur des violences physiques, cohabitations suspectes, conflits entre évêques, usurpation de siège, discipline dans les monastères, rapports avec les collaborateurs... On peut suivre ici, comme par une immersion dans les réalités de l'époque, l'activité du pape qui, bien que malade et inquiet de la présence lombarde, s'attache à remplir ses obligations. Dans ces lettres, émanant de la chancellerie pontificale, l'empreinte de Grégoire est presque toujours perceptible et, à travers ces ultimes écrits du pape, se dessine un tableau au plus près de la vie des Églises au tournant des vie et viie siècles, à la charnière de l'Antiquité tardive et du Haut Moyen Âge, par l'un des acteurs mêmes de cette histoire. Ce volume complète ceux déjà parus dans la collection des Sources Chrétiennes, à savoir les tomes I (livres I-II, SC 370-371) et II (livres III-IV, SC 520).

Abstract

In letters to his dear friend Atticus, Cicero reveals himself as to no other of his correspondents except, perhaps, his brother. These letters, in this four-volume series, also provide a vivid picture of a momentous period in Roman history-years marked by the rise of Julius Caesar and the downfall of the Republic. When the correspondence begins in November 68 BCE the 38-year-old Cicero is a notable figure in Rome: a brilliant lawyer and orator, who has achieved primacy at the Roman bar and a political career that would culminate in the Consulship in 63. Over the next twenty-four years-to November 44, a year before he was put to death by the forces of Octavian and Mark Antony-Cicero wrote frequently to his friend and confidant, sharing news and discussing affairs of business and state. It is to this corpus of over 400 letters that we owe most of our information about Cicero's literary activity. And taken as a whole the letters provide a first-hand account of social and political life in Rome.
