"Prudentius, "
Brill's New Pauly: "Prudentius, Christian Latin poet (348/349- after 405)
born to a wealthy Christian family in Spain, he underwent the obligatory rhetorical
education before commencing work as a lawyer. Twice he was provincial governor, and lastly a high official in the central imperial civil service. With hindsight,
however, he came to regard this worldly career as squandered time, and, in his 57th year, he decided to devote the remainder of his life, hitherto lacking in Christian service,
to praise God with his voice (Prudent. praef.). He prepared an edition of his own works in 405 (perhaps without the Psychomachia, certainly without the Dittochaeon).
Just as in the praefatio, P. also used the epilogue of this edition to stress the close existential relationship between his poetical activities and his God-given salvation..."
