The testimonies of Sidonius Apollinaris show a very active literary life in the emperor’s milieu, revealing – completely lost today – the oeuvre of outstanding Gallic poets, compared with the greatest men of letters of the Roman past, they also prove a very vivid interest of the citizens of Arelate in the contemporary literary production; particularly worthy of note are their spontaneous reactions to any allusions to their own life that can be found in this poetry.
