This is the first new critical dual-language (Latin/German) edition
of one of the most important New Latin Jesuit dramas, Nicolaus
Avancini's (1611--1686) APietas victrixA. The historical drama
centres around Constantine the Great's victory over his adversary
Maxentius (Battle of the Milvian Bridge, 312 BC). The text follows
the editio princeps (Vienna 1650), which contains the stage
directions (of major value for the history of drama) and engravings
of the stage decorations (reproduced in the appendix of this
volume). A detailed Introduction (with a bibliography of research
literature) informs the reader about the author and his works, with
special reference to APietas victrixA as a stage play. Alongside
the critical edition of the text, the volume also documents and
translates the variants found in subsequent editions and the
passages altered at a later stage. It further contains the German
Perioche and a list of the actors involved in the first
performance. The notes on the text provide brief information on the
most important historical references.
