Publisher's Synopsis
""A Study of the Clausulae in the Works of St. Ambrose"" by M. Rosella Delaney is a scholarly work that examines the use of clausulae in the writings of St. Ambrose, a prominent figure in early Christianity. Clausulae are rhetorical devices that create a sense of closure or completion in a sentence or passage. Delaney analyzes how St. Ambrose used clausulae in his sermons and other writings to convey his theological ideas and to create a sense of rhythm and structure in his prose. The book provides a detailed analysis of specific examples of clausulae in St. Ambrose's works, as well as an overview of the historical and literary context in which he wrote. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of early Christianity, rhetoric, and literary analysis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
