Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the life and work of the Roman epigrammatist, Martial, against the backdrop of 1st century Roman society. The author offers a fresh perspective on Martial's writings, particularly on his famous epigrams, which provide invaluable insights into the realities of everyday life during the Flavian dynasty. The book examines the themes of poverty, patronage, and social relations in Martial's work, as well as his unique contribution to the development of the epigram as a literary form. It argues that Martial's wit and keen observation offer a nuanced portrayal of Roman life and customs, making his work essential reading for understanding the social and cultural milieu of the Roman Empire. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
