The source in question, the Passio Pollionis (BHL 6869), is one of the earliest testimonies, alongside Ambrose's and Jerome's works. It is also peculiar in that, as a hagiographie work, it addresses the emperor Valentinian I with this title. A brief comparison with the use of christianissimus in Ambrose, as well as the analysis of its literary--propagandists function in the Passio Pollionis is meant to shed light on the documentary potential of the Passio. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Vigiliae Christianae is the property of Brill Academic Publishers and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
