Christiados Libri Sex, by Marco Girolamo Vida, is an epic poem written in Latin that recounts the life of Christ. This 1814 edition offers readers a chance to engage with a significant work of religious and classical literature.
Vida, a 16th-century Italian humanist and bishop, masterfully employs classical poetic style to narrate the Christian story, blending religious themes with the literary traditions of ancient Rome. This edition, edited by Edward Owen, makes Vida's work accessible to a new generation of scholars and enthusiasts interested in Latin poetry, religious narratives, and the intersection of classical and Christian thought. A valuable addition to any collection focusing on religious literature or classical studies.
