Beskrivning

A thoughtful young Roman under Marcus Aurelius moves through the philosophies on offer - Epicurean, Stoic, Christian - testing each against the fact that he will die. Pater's conclusion to The Renaissance, urging readers to burn with a hard gemlike flame, had been taken up by Wilde's generation as a licence; he wrote this long, slow novel to explain that he had meant something more serious.
