1571 Fabricius Virorum Illustrium Famous
Lives ROME Josephus Tacitus Strabo
“Death comes to all, But great achievements raise a monument, Which
shall endure until the sun grows old.”
– Georg Fabricius
Georg Fabricius was an important 16th-century Protestant
German author who is responsible for some of the best editions of Greek and
Roman classics such as Terence, Virgil, and Horace. And while his commentary on
classical literature is without a doubt his best work, he is also known for a
study on the history of Christian religion. He published a number of sacred
poems as well in which he sought to completely avoid all traces of paganism.
This 1571 printing of ‘Virorum Illustrium’ includes many of his sacred
poems, but is desirable for his biographical sketches of notable church
fathers, historians, and Roman rulers including:
·
Africanus

Appian

Florus
