A Literary Commentary on Panegyrici Latini VI (7): An Oration Delivered before the Emperor Constantine in Trier, ca. AD 310

This oration from AD 310, which covers Maximian's rebellion, Constantine's claim of descent from Claudius II and his vision of Apollo, is crucial for understanding Constantine's early career. The commentary examines the literary context and the role of the classical literary and rhetorical tradition in creating a new imperial persona.
