Description:
Paulus Orosius was a fifth century Roman historian and a student of Augustine of Hippo. His ‘Seven Books of History against the Pagans’ is a major work that had a great impact on historiography during the period between antiquity and the Middle Ages. It presents an engaging historical narration, focusing on the pagan peoples from the earliest time up until when the author was alive. Orosius’ objective was to compose a work that could prove that Rome’s decadence and its recent sacking by Alaric I was not a result of its conversion to Christianity. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Latin texts. This eBook presents Orosius’ ‘Seven Books of History against the Pagans’, with illustrations and an informative introduction. (Version 1)
