“The prose letters of Pontius Meropius Paulinus, whose birthplace and family estate were near Bordeaux but who established a monastic house at Nola near Naples and ultimately became bishop there, extend over approximately the second half of his life. [...]Like his spiritual mentor Saint Paul, he is fiercely devoted to the person of Christ. For him the prime fact of life in this world is that Christ saved mankind by His death on the cross, and that He continues to dwell and perform His saving work in us. With a wide range of scriptural images he constantly depicts Christ as the sole necessity of our lives.” —“INTRODUCTION”
