By Decimus Magnus Ausonius

There are over a hundred epigrams, some of which are in Greek and others translated from Greek. There are 25 letters. His correspondence with Paulinus of Nola is the most notable part of these. The Ephemeris includes many poems in various metres, dealing with daily life. The Parentalia is a collection of short poems in memory of deceased relatives of the poet. The Commemoratio Professorum Burdigalensium is of interest for the history of education. (.) This account by no means exhausts the list of minor poems, throughout which the author's minute knowledge of Virgil is apparant and his Christian faith is not obtruded. His most important poem is the Mosella which still attracts readers. It is a rhetorically fashioned laudatio in 483 hexameters and describes in considerable detail the various fish to be found in the river as well as some of the fine buildings on the banks and other features, the whole constituting a series of episodes, composed, like the rest of Ausonius' verse, according to rule'. (OCD 2nd ed. p. 154) § Not known on which edition this 1523 edition is based. It is not a reissue of the Juntae or Aldus edition, both of 1517. It has after the short biography of Ausonius by Petrus Crinitus, with which it opens, a 10 page 'Scriptorum Ausonii Catalogus'. Follow the Epigrammata, the Eidyllia, among them Mosella, Epistolae, and other minor works; it ends with Ausonius' 'Periochae in omnes Homeri Rhapsodias')
