SAINT FULGENTIUS, BISHOP AND CONFESSOR Fabius Claudius Gordianus Fulgentius was the descendant of a noble senatorian family of Carthage: but much decayed in its splendour by the invasion of the Vandals.  His father, Claudius, being unjustly deprived of his house in Carthage, which was made over to the Arian priests, settled at an estate belonging to him at Telepte, the capital city of the province of Byzacena.  HE WAS BORN IN 468 Our saint was born in 468, about thirty years after the Barbarians had dismembered Africa from the Roman empire.  He was educated in sentiments of piety with his younger brother, under the care of his mother Mariana, who was left a young widow.  Being, by her particular direction, taught the Greek very young, he spoke it with as proper and exact an accent as if it had been his native language.
