Orosius and the Rhetoric of History

ISBN: 9780199655274 出版年：2012 页码：261 Van Nuffelen, Peter Oxford University Press

Drawing on textual and rhetorical analysis, Peter Van Nuffelen proposes a major revaluation of The Histories Against the Pagans of Orosius, arguing that it is a much more subtle and complex text than usually assumed. Van Nuffelen uses Orosius as a lens to consider fourth- and fifth-century historiography.
