Liber absque litteris de aetatibus mundi et hominis
Quick Summary
The Liber absque litteris de aetatibus mundi et hominis is a work by Fabius Planciades Fulgentius, a Christian Latin writer from North Africa who lived in the late 5th and early 6th centuries AD. This work is described as bizarre and divides human history into 23 periods. Fulgentius was a mythographer and allegorical interpreter of classical writers, whose methods were influential during the Middle Ages. While some scholars once believed he was the same person as Saint Fulgentius of Ruspe, a bishop and theological writer, this view is now largely abandoned.12
