Abstract
The article reviews several scholarly works, focusing on their contributions to historical and literary studies. One highlighted volume, "Ammianus Marcellinus from Soldier to Author," examines the life and writings of the Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus, emphasizing the influence of his military background on his historical narratives. Another significant work, "A History of Early Christian Creeds" by Wolfram Kinzig, is noted for its comprehensive analysis of the formation and application of early Christian creeds, integrating their historical context with their roles in medieval music, art, and liturgy. Both texts are positioned as valuable resources for scholars and students interested in Roman historiography and early Christian theology. [Extracted from the article]
