Download As PDF : The Iconoclastic Book Of The Satires Of Persius edition by John Edwards Literature Fiction eBooks
Unique in style & purpose in the history of Roman satiric poetry, & the inspiration for Juvenal, the iconic "Book Of The Satires Of Persius" has often defied translation into English. Persius was the John Donne of the Silver Age. This new translation says what Persius said 2,000 years ago without misrepresenting his neologic, quixotic Latin. It is an essential companion to Edwards' "The Ardent Works Of Juvenal" & will be of interest both to poets & scholars. The author studied as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford & specialized in Silver Age Latin. His other publications include the "De Re Coquinaria" of Apicius & contributions to "The American Journal Of Philology". He presently teaches Classical Studies & Plantagenet History at Vancouver Island University.

This new and brilliant translation of the satiric writins of the Roman poet Persius brings to life the follies, bizzare exesses and decadence of his time, when Nero ruled Rome.

The similarities between then and now are both frightening and hilarious.This is the best translation yet of this under-appreciated Roman satirist.
