Dust jacket is complete but rubbed and worn at edges and corners. Pages are unmarked and uncreased. Sound overall. Publisher's note: 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. Size: 22.6 x 14.8 x 1 cm. 177 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Literature & Literary; Persius -- Translations into English; Verse satire, Latin; Verse satire, Latin -- Translations into English; ISBN/EAN: 9780905205373. Add.
