From the publisher

As a propagandist Claudian offers unique illumination of the intrigues inside and between the rival courts of Milan and Constantinople in the decisive years following the death of Theodosius the Great. As a poet, though a Greek by birth, he revived Latin Poetry with a flair not seen since the Silver Age and not to be seen again.

This book studies Claudian's poetical and propagandist techniques, his accounts of Stilicho's campaigns and rivals, his debt to Greek rhetorical theory and contemporary poetry, his culture, attitude to Rome and its problems, and not least-his position as a pagan at a Christian court. An epilogue traces his influence in Medieval times and on English literature.
