A critical edition of part of Venantius Fortunatus' Vita Sancti Martini, which paraphrases in epic verse Sulpicius Severus' famous prose hagiography of St Martin and represents one of the last flowerings of a recognisably classical Latin tradition. Deals extensively with matters of exegesis, textual criticism, language, metre and much else.
