Abstract

It seems an opportune moment to pass on to the readers of Antiquite Tardive notice of the principal scientific celebration of the 16th centenary of Ambrose, and to add to it reviews of three important and recent works on the bishop of Milan. Appearing in English, Italian and French (to follow the chronological order of their publication), they offer by reason of their three points of view a portrait of the bishop multidimensional. Taken together, they also help us mark the distance travelled since the classic syntheses of Palanque and Paredi, and also since the Milan congress of 1974. One hopes that this short account will attract young "Ambrosians " for the 21st century. Our Milanese friends told us optimistically that they were expecting to see us at the 17th centenary of the Edict of Milan, in 2013.
