An account, and assessment, of the career of St Ambrose (339-397),
from 374 bishop of Milan and one of the four Doctors of the
Christian Church (with Sts. Jerome, Augustine and Gregory the
Great). A key figure in the transition of the later Roman Empire
into its medieval successor, Western Christendom, Ambrose was
deeply involved in the political, social and religious issues of
his day: struggles between church and state (especially with
Emperor Theodosius), the fight against heresy, but he also had a
deep influence on Church thought such as the role and status of
women. John Moorhead considers all these dimensions in a book that
will be of compelling interest to historians of the Church and the
late classical world and classical studies.
