Résumé

The Satires of Juvenal, Persius, Sulpicia, and Lucilius presents a compelling anthology exploring the multifaceted nature of Roman satire. This collection captures the nuanced social critique and rich literary traditions of ancient Rome through a diverse range of voices and styles. With works ranging from scathing denunciations of moral decay to insightful reflections on personal and societal values, each piece offers a unique perspective on the human condition, blending wit and wisdom.
Standout satires in the collection push the boundaries of literary forms, encouraging readers to consider the enduring relevance of these classical themes. The contributing authors, hailing from different periods of the Roman Empire, collectively enrich the tapestry of this anthology. Juvenal and Persius deliver biting political and social commentaries, while Lucilius, as a pioneer of Roman satire, offers foundational insights into the genre.
Sulpicia adds a rare feminine perspective, adding depth to the traditionally male-dominated narrative of satire. Together, these authors engage with the philosophical currents of Stoicism and Epicureanism, creating a dialogue that transcends their individual works to encompass the broader cultural and historical contexts of their time. This anthology is an indispensable treasure for readers eager to immerse themselves in Roman literary tradition.
The expertly curated selection provides a rare opportunity to engage with a spectrum of perspectives and styles, making it an invaluable resource for those studying classical literature, history, or philosophy. By examining the satires' societal critiques, readers gain a deeper understanding of their timeless relevance, fostering dialogue between ancient wisdom and modern inquiry.
