MAMERTINUS, CLAUDIUS (4th century A.D.)

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 519 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAL-MAR
MAMERTINUS, CLAUDIUS (4th century A.D.) , one of the Latin panegyrists. After the death of
Julian
 , by whom he was evidently regarded with
special
  favour, he was praefect of
Italy
  (365) under Valens and Valentinian, but was subsequently (368) deprived of his
office
  for
embezzlement
 . He was the author of an extant speech of thanks to
Julian
  for raising him to the consulship, delivered on the 1st of January 362 at
Constantinople
 . Two panegyrical addresses (also extant) to Maximian (emperor A.D. 286305) are attributed to an older magister
Mamertinus
 , but it is probable that the corrupt MS. superscription contains the word memoriae, and that they are by an unknown magister memoriae (an official whose duty consisted in communicating imperial rescripts and decisions to the public). The first of these was delivered on the birthday of Rome (
April
  21, 289), probably at Maximian's palace at Augusta Trevirorum (Treves), the second in 290 or 291, on the birthday of the emperor. By some they are attributed to Eumenius (q.v.) who was a magister memoriae and the author of at least one (if not more) panegyrics.
The three speeches will be found in E. Bahrens, Panegyrici
latini
  (1874); see also Teuffel-Schwabe, Hist. of Roman Literature (Eng trans.), 417, 7.
