Flavius Cresconius Corippus (470/495 – 540/560) was a Roman African epic poet who flourished under East Roman emperors Justinian I and Justin II. His major works are the epic poem Iohannis, a panegyric called "Panegyric of Anastasius", and a poem in praise of the Emperor Justin II, In laudem Iustini minoris.[1] Corippus was probably the last important Latin author of Late Antiquity.
