A wandering "Orpheus among the barbarians," a lively flatterer of
the powerful and an appreciator of good food and pleasant company:
the sixth-century poet Venantius Fortunatus is known to us today
for being all these things. Yet in the Middle Ages people knew and
loved "Fortunatus the priest:" a man of the Church and a teacher of
Christian dogma. This book for the first time looks at this other
side of Fortunatus' character through the lens of what he wrote
when he was bishop of Poitiers at the end of his life: two sermons
and a hymn to the Virgin Mary. Here you will encounter something
unexpected: Bishop Fortunatus the stern yet skillful preacher of
Augustinian grace and Chalcedonian orthodoxy.
