After a careful survey of Saint Augustine?s critical attitudes to ancient myth and poetry, summarized as a long drawn-out farewell, Cullhed examines other Late Antique dismissals as well as appropriations of the classical heritage. Macrobius, Martianus Capella and Boethius figure among the Late Antique intellectuals who attempted to save or even restore the old mythology by means of allegorical representation. On the other hand, pious poets such as Paulinus of Nola and Bible epic writers such as Iuvencus or Avitus of Vienne turned against pagan lies, and the mighty arch-bishop of Milan, Saint Ambrose, played off unconditional Christian truth against the last Roman strongholds of cultural pluralism. Thus, The Shadow of Creusa elucidates a cultural conflict which was to leave traces all through the Middle Ages and reach down to our present day. 410 0$aBeitra?ge zur Altertumskunde ;$vBd. 339. 606 $aFiction$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLatin literature$xHistory and criticism 610 $aAllegory. 610 $aLate Antiquity. 610 $afictionality. 610 $athe Church Fathers. 615 0$aFiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLatin literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a400 700 $aCullhed$b Anders$0292937 702 $aKnight$b Michael 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815599303321 996 $aThe shadow of Creusa$92351509 997 $aUNINA
