Sinopsis

This volume, part of Bohn?s Classical Library, collects the satires of Juvenal, Persius, Sulpicia, and Lucilius. These works offer a critical and often humorous view into Roman society, politics, and culture. Juvenal?s biting verse exposes the corruption and decadence of his time, while Persius delves into moral philosophy with a Stoic perspective. Sulpicia, one of the few known female Roman poets, provides a unique voice with her intimate and personal poems. Lucilius, regarded as the originator of Roman satire, laid the groundwork for later satirists. This collection, edited by Lewis Evans and William Gifford, presents these important works in a format accessible to modern readers, preserving their historical and literary value.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
