Hardback --- Summary This volume presents the Proceedings of the International Study Congress on Chromatius of Aquileia and his Age , which took place in Aquileia from 22 to 24 May 2008, under the direction of Pier Franco Beatrice (Università degli Studi di Padova University of Padua) and Alessio Per ič (Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Catholic University of the Sacred Heart Milan) and under the initiative of the National Committee for the 16th centenary anniversary of the death of Saint Chromatius, bishop of Aquileia . The event stemmed from the passionate interest traditionally shown by Christianity for its Christian origins, inherited from the one-thousand-year-plus tradition of the Patriarchate of Aquileia. The Conference gathered together scholars from Europe and America who are qualified in Chromatius work, only recently saved from the anonymity in which it was steeped, being in the handwritten tradition. In this way, the Congress wanted to contribute in an original way and at an international level to increasing the literary historiography of Aquileia (in particular at the time of Chromatius), which had and continues to have valued enthusiasts in Friuli, but which does not always seem to be as practised and known as it deserves to be elsewhere.
