Flavius Cresconius Corippus



Of African origin, Corippus migrated to Constantinople. His Johannis, an epic poem in eight books, treats the campaign conducted against the insurgent Mauretanians by John Troglita, the Byzantine commander, and is the principal source of knowledge of these events. The poem, written about 550, shows the tenacity of the classical tradition in Africa and the continuance of the poetic revival that took place under Vandal rule. In laudem Justini, the four books of which eulogize Justinian I’s successor Justin II, was written after the arrival of Corippus in Constantinople.
