Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of six satires by the Roman poet Aulus Persius Flaccus, who wrote during the first century AD. Persius was heavily influenced by the works of the satirist Horace, and his own satires employ a similar blend of wit and moral instruction. The satires cover a wide range of topics, including the superficiality of Roman society, the dangers of wealth and power, and the importance of virtue. Persius's satires are notable for their sharp wit and their incisive social commentary. His work has been praised for its originality and its insights into human nature.
