Book excerpt: Besides his elder sister Marcelllina, who received the veil at the hands of Pope Liberius, at Christmas [perh. 353 a.d.], St. Ambrose had also a brother named Satyrus, to which name, in three epitaph on him ascribed to the bishop, is added Uranius.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SAINT AMBROSE COLLECTION [9 BOOKS] — Quality Formatting and Value — Active Index, Multiple Table of Contents for all Books — Multiple Illustrations Aurelius Ambrosius, better known in English as Saint Ambrose, was a bishop of Milan who became one of the most influential ecclesiastical figures of the 4th century. He was consular prefect of Liguria and Emilia, headquartered in Milan, before being made bishop of Milan by popular acclamation in 374. Ambrose was a staunch opponent of Arianism, and has been accused of fostering persecutions of Arians, Jews, and pagans. Traditionally, Ambrose is credited with promoting "antiphonal chant", a style of chanting in which one side of the choir responds alternately to the other, as well as with composing Veni redemptor gentium, an Advent hymn. Ambrose was one of the four original doctors of the Church, and is the patron saint of Milan. He is notable for his influence on St. Augustine. —BOOKS— CONCERNING REPENTANCE CONCERNING VIRGINS CONCERNING WIDOWS EXPOSITION OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH ON THE DECEASE OF HIS BROTHER SATYRUS ON THE DUTIES OF THE CLERGY ON THE HOLY SPIRIT ON THE MYSTERIES AND THE TREATISE ON THE SACRAMENTS THE LETTERS OF SAINT AMBROSE, BISHOP OF MILAN PUBLISHER: AETERNA PRESS
