Description
and Persius, translated by William Gifford, is a collection of satirical poems from two ancient Roman poets. The book includes all sixteen of Juvenal's satires and all six of Persius's satires, translated into rhymed couplets in English verse. The poems cover a wide range of topics, including corruption in government, social inequality, and moral decay. Gifford's translation is praised for its accuracy and clarity, and for capturing the wit and humor of the original Latin texts. The book also includes an introduction by Gifford, providing historical context and background information on the poets and their works. This edition is a valuable resource for students of classical literature, as well as anyone interested in the history of satire and social commentary.With A Chronology Adapted To Their Writings; An Essay On The Satire Of The Ancients, And The Abuses Of Modern Satire; And A Confutation Of The Censure Past Upon The First Edition Of This Work By The Critical Reviewers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
