| Popis: | With the conversion to Christianity in the Theodosian age, the Roman aristocracy projected their class ideology and self-representation into the conception of religious sanctity and the vision of the Afterlife. On a literary level, this gives rise to an eschatological imagery in which the holy souls are the nobility and the ���notables��� (proceres) of the eternal res publica, they constitute the ���heavenly senate��� (caelestis curia) seated around the throne of God, and the martyrs of Christ are given the title of ���consuls���. This paper aims to describe the development of such images in the Christian Latin poetry of the 4th-6th centuries AD. Antichistica |
