1 For F.'s reading of Peristephanon 10 as a Christian tragedy, see also P.-Y. Fux, ‘Le Romanus de Prudence (Peristephanon 10), Tragédie Chrétienne’, in A. Kolde, A. Lukinovich & A.-L. Rey (edd.), Koryphaiō andri: Mélanges offerts à André Hurst (2005), pp. 87–96.

2 Peristephanon 7, according to F., might have been added to the collection to make 12 poems (7 passions + 4 Spanish hymns = 11) on analogy of the poems of the Cathemerinon (p. 193). Peristephanon 10 finds its place in the poet's œuvre as a ‘poème de transition’ between the Peristephanon and Contra Symmachum (p. 242), whereas Peristephanon 8 could have been added to the collection after Prudentius’ death (pp. 229–30).
