- | [[Theophrastus]] was the supposed author of the Liber aureolus de nuptiis (The Golden Book of Marriage), an [[antifeminist]] work that was bound in an anthology with [[Jerome]]'s ''[[Epistola adversus Jovinianum]]'' (Letter Against Jovinian) I.47 (PL 23: 276-278) and [[Walter Map]]'s ''[[Dissuasio Valerii ad Rufinum philosophum ne uxorem ducat]]'' (The Advice of Valerius to Rufinus Not to Marry, 1180-1183). The Liber aureolus is now lost but survives in Jerome's Epistola, I.41. There is no evidence that Theophrastus (d. 287 B.C.) wrote this tract. | ||
