The Satires of Persius

- Introduction, Text, Translation and Commentary

af Guy Lee
Bag om The Satires of Persius

Aulus Persius Flaccus (A.D. 34-62) wrote in racy conversational Latin six satires countering contemporary vice with Stoic morality; he died young. This is not easy poetry, with its sudden shifts of tone, switches of speaker and situation, vivid evocation of the everyday roman background, and confident handling of philosophical positions.
