Abstract

Both authors, Prudentius Clemens and Augustine of Hippo, recalled in their works the martyrdom of the bishop Fructuosus of Terragona and his deacons, Augurius and Eulogius. Poem VI from Peristephanon is entirely devoted to the subject of Spanish martyrs. Likewise, Augustine in his Sermo 273 mentions Fructuosus, Augurius and Eulogius. The article focuses on the way in which martyrdom is described by both authors.
