This volume presents the collected satires of Decimus Iunius Iuvenalis, known in English as Juvenal, alongside the satires of Aulus Persius Flaccus, commonly known as Persius. Juvenal’s sixteen satires offer a scathing critique of Roman society, providing vivid and often brutal depictions of its vices and follies. His work is celebrated for its powerful rhetoric and moral indignation. Persius, though writing fewer satires (only six), displays a similar moral seriousness and technical skill. His poems delve into philosophical themes, reflecting the influence of Stoicism. This edition offers readers a valuable insight into the satirical tradition of ancient Rome, showcasing two of its most important voices. These works provide not only literary merit but also a fascinating glimpse into the social and ethical concerns of their time.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
