This monograph provides a review of the history of praise of rulers
composed in hexameters (so-called panegyric epic) from the fourth
to the sixth century A.D. Panegyric epic is a form of literature
that only came to be of particular importance in Late Antiquity,
although it drew upon and adapted a variety of Graeco-Roman
literary traditions. Following a general description of the
literary and historical-cultural preconditions for the development
of Late Antique panegyric, this study presents its most important
practitioners and their works, as well as detailing the development
of the various traditions of Late Antique verse panegyric.
