Origin of Sin: An English Translation of the Hamartigenia

One of the great early Christian poets, Prudentius penned a 63-line preface, followed by 1,290 lines of dactylic hexameter, depicting how sin entered in the universe and its consequences, culminating in a day of judgment for the damned and salvation for the elect. His vision has inspired poets and thinkers ever since. 320 pages, softcover. Cornell University.
