Litterae Christianorum

Bibliothek der fruehchristlichen lateinischen Literatur

Litterae Christianorum (LC) presents Christian Latin literature from the 2nd to the 5th century in bilingual editions. On the one hand, it aims to make available source texts relevant to the history of language, literature, profanity and theology from a time of great transformations, and on the other, to provide new perspectives on the literary production of Christian antiquity in Latin and its specific contribution to the aesthetics and character of late antique Latin literature.

Access to the critically edited and newly translated texts is facilitated by introductions to the works and authors as well as explanatory notes. One focus is on texts that have never been translated or have not been translated for a long time, while another is on works that are characteristic of the period or particularly attractive from a literary point of view.
