Hardback. Condition: New. Alcimus Ecdicius Avitus, bishop of Vienne and a vigorous defender of Christian orthodoxy, was born into the senatorial aristocracy in southern Gaul in the mid-fifth century and lived until 518. The verse in Biblical and Pastoral Poetry was written in the late fifth or early sixth century. Avitus's most famous work, the Spiritual History, narrates the biblical stories of creation, the Fall and expulsion from paradise, the Flood, and the Israelites' escape from Egypt. He revitalizes Christian epic poetry, highlighting original sin and redemption and telling the history of Christian salvation with dramatic dialogue and rich description. In Consolatory Praise of Chastity-a verse treatise addressed to his sister, a consecrated virgin-illuminates the demands of the ascetic life from the perspective of a close family member. Avitus seeks to bolster his sister's resolve with biblical examples of mental fortitude, constructing a robust model for female heroism. This volume presents new English translations of Avitus's two extant poetic writings alongside the Latin texts.…

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 289 pages. a clean and well-kept copy, tiny bit of spotting on the fore edge of the pages. 60 or so ultra-short "flash" stories. This copy contains a long, friendly INSCRIPTION and SIGNATURE from the author Avitus B. Carle on the titlepage. This is her first collection of stories in book form. The publicity for this book says: "Avitus B. Carle is one of the best flash fiction writers I know. This collection of sixty-one stories showcases the vast range of her talents. A writer of seemingly unlimited imagination, Carle is by turns disarmingly playful and dead serious. Formally inventive, magical, and often darkly funny, these stories present a kaleidoscopic world where anything can happen. But make no mistake, there's wisdom and empathy at the center of even the most uncanny of these works. Carle makes us feel what her characters feel: a yearning to go beyond mere survival to a place of love and acceptance. These Worn Bodies is an astonishing, and deeply impressive read.".
