Paperback. Condition: 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 Juvenalâs satire is a valuable historical document that provides a unique glimpse into the social and political landscape of the Roman Empire and has had a lasting influence on Western literature.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of satirical poems by the Roman poet Juvenal, written in the 1st and 2nd centuries CE. Juvenal's works are known for their sharp wit and biting social commentary, and they offer a unique insight into the morals and manners of his time. Juvenal's poems cover a wide range of topics, from the corruption of the Roman elite to the absurdity of everyday life. He skewers everything from the wealthy who spend their fortunes on lavish banquets to the poor who are forced to live in squalor. His work is full of memorable characters, such as the miserly miser who hoards his wealth to the detriment of his family, and the hypocritical moralist who preaches virtue while secretly indulging in vice. Juvenal's satire is often harsh and unforgiving, but it is also deeply rooted in a love for Rome and a desire to see it improve. His work is a valuable historical document that provides a glimpse into the complexities of Roman society, and it continues to be read and enjoyed today for its wit, wisdom, and insight into the human condition.
