A fourth century Christian ascetic, Sulpicius Severus is an important authority for Gallo-Roman history and the most graceful writer of his time. His most famous work is a biography of Saint Martin of Tours, of whom he was a disciple and his most famous hagiographer.

He also wrote an influential 'Sacred History', narrating events from the Creation to his own time, while omitting the Gospels. Sulpicius' 'Dialogues' are a literary masterpiece in which the relative merits of Martin's monastery are debated by one of its inmates with a traveller, who has recently returned to Aquitania from the ascetics of the North African desert. Delphi's Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, offering both English translations and the original Latin texts. This eBook presents Sulpicius' complete works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
