    Libanius was a Greek teacher of rhetoric who remained unconverted and pagan during the rise of Christian hegemony. His writings champion classical education and Hellenic traditions. Composed in a period of significant religious transition in the Roman Empire, his work offers a perspective on the enduring influence of pagan thought and learning.
