	Paulinus of Nola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Paulinus was from a notable senatorial family with possessions in Aquitaine, northern Spain, and southern Italy.
		Paulinus had developed a fondness for the 4th century martyr St. Felix of Nola when he had lived in Campania before, and they settled near Felix's tomb; Paulinus rebuilt the complex, greatly enlarging the shrine and building guest houses for pilgrims.
		Paulinus wrote an annual hymn in honor of St. Felix for the feast day when processions of pilgrims were at their peak.

	Nicetas
		In Dacia, where, according to Paulinus, his friend Nicetas was bishop, there was a city called Romatiana (now Bela Palanka) on the great Roman military road from Belgrade to Constantinople, and this was the see of Nicetas.
		In this latter poem Paulinus describes how his friend, journeying home, is greeted everywhere with joy, because in his apostolic labours in the cold regions of the North, he has melted the icy hearts of men by the warmth of the Divine doctrine.
		Paulinus of Nola praises his friend as a hymn-writer; from this it is evident that Gennadius has not given a complete list of the writings of Nicetas.

	St. Paulinus, Bishop of Nola - Ökumenisches Heiligenlexikon
		When Paulinus lost his only child eight days after birth, and when he was threatened with the charge of having murdered his brother, he and his wife decided to withdraw from the world, and to enter the monastic life.
		Although Paulinus has great versatility and nicety, still he is not entirely free from the mannerisms and ornate culture of his period.
		His body was first interred in the cathedral of Nola; later, in Benevento; then it was conveyed by Otto III to S. Bartolomeo all'Isola, in Rome, and finally in compliance with the regulation of Pius X of 18 Sept., 1908 (Acta Apostolicae Sedis, I, 245 sq.) was restored to the cathedral of Nola.

	St. Felix of Nola
		Five churches were built in his honour, outside Nola, where his remains are kept, but some relics are also at Rome and Benevento.
		Paulinus, who acted as porter to one of these churches, testifies to numerous pilgrimages made in honour of Felix.
		The poems and letters of Paulinus on Felix are the source from which St. Gregory of Tours, Venerable Bede, and the priest Marcellus have drawn their biographies (see PAULINUS OF NOLA).

		Saint Paulinus received baptism soon afterwards, at the age of thirty-eight, from the bishop of Bordeaux, Saint Delphin; then he withdrew into Spain to be at liberty to pray in solitude.

		What Paulinus seems to add is the sense that the letter not only put one in communion with the correspondent but extended outside of the correspondence to put one in communion with the absent Christ and reinforced both author's and addressee's spiritual connection through their Christian faith.
		In addition, Paulinus prefers an associative rather than strictly linear narrative logic, because it is through the juxtaposition of images that he is best able to represent the paradoxes that are intrinsic to Christian rhetoric.
		Like his classical predecessors, Paulinus employed intertextual reference as a means of expanding meaning, but, suggests C., "the difference seems to lie in the expected psychology of reading: the sense of the text, not as an end in itself, but as a conduit, however imperfect, of a truth that lies beyond the textual" (115-116).

	BMCR-L: BMCR 2001.10.16 Trout, Paulinus of Nola. Life, Letters, and Poems

		Paulinus’ most audacious attempt to combine classical literary convention and ascetic ideals is to be found in Carm.
		In the light of Paulinus’ insistence throughout the poem on the importance of virginity, the allowance he now makes for the possibility that Julian and Titia may, despite his advice to the contrary, decide to indulge in sexual relations after all and have children is somewhat unexpected.
		If this were to happen, he advises, all of their offspring should be brought up as descendants of priestly stock. Paulinus is not presenting them with a soft option, but probably just articulating a common practice among members of the aristocracy. In conclusion, from our examination of these few examples of generic innovation in Carm.
