Magnus Felix Ennodius [SEP] place of death
Magnus Felix Ennodius
Magnus Felix Ennodius (473 or 474 – 17 July 521 AD) was Bishop of Pavia in 514, and a Latin rhetorician and poet. 
He was one of four Gallo-Roman aristocrats of the fifth to sixth-century whose letters survive in quantity: the others are Sidonius Apollinaris, prefect of Rome in 468 and bishop of Clermont (died 485), Ruricius bishop of Limoges (died 507) and Alcimus Ecdicius Avitus, bishop of Vienne (died 518). All of them were linked
the Laurentian schism, with Albinus and Avienus supporting Symmachus and Theodore and Inportunus supporting Laurentius.
He was a correspondent of Magnus Felix Ennodius; one letter by Ennodius to Avienus has been preserved.
By 507/509, Avienus and his brother Albinus had already become "patricii"; around this time, but after the death of their father, they were asked to become patrons of the Greens and to appoint a pantomime.
