The renowned Gallic poet Pacatus Drepanius journeyed to Rome in the
summer of AD 389 to deliver a speech to the Emperor Theodosius;
both men stood for the first time before the Roman Senators. It was
a moment of high political charge. The Latin speech survives and is
here presented both in the original and with facing English
translation; the introduction and commentary capture the
groundbreaking character of the work and set it in its historical,
rhetorical and literary contexts.
