D. Junii Juvenalis Et A. Persii Flacci Satiræ (Classic Reprint)

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book by Juvenal is a satirical work consisting of sixteen poems composed during the height of the Roman Empire, under the reign of Domitian, and into the reign of Trajan. The poems address the moral decay, hypocrisy, greed, and political corruption of the period through a series of amusing and often outrageous anecdotes. Juvenal excoriates the wealthy and powerful with lacerating wit and humor, while revealing the depth of social and cultural problems that plagued the Roman world. The authorâs focus is on the moral decay of his time, which he attributes to the loss of traditional Roman values and the influx of foreign customs and ideas. Juvenalâs satire is a valuable historical document that provides a unique glimpse into the social and political landscape of the Roman Empire and has had a lasting influence on Western literature.
