Some of the notable poems included in this collection are "De Raptu Proserpinae," "In Rufinum," "De Bello Gildonico," and "De Consulatu Stilichonis." Claudianus was known for his elaborate style and the way he combined classical themes with the political concerns of his time. The author: Claudius Claudianus (circa 370-404 AD) was a prominent Latin poet of the late Roman Empire, known for his skillful use of language and his ability to blend mythology with contemporary political events. His works often praised powerful figures of his time, such as the general Stilicho, and provided valuable insight into the culture and politics of the late Roman Empire.
