and Persius, translated by William GiffordJuvenal and Persius V1 is a book that contains the works of two ancient Roman satirists, Juvenal and Persius. The book is translated from Latin to English by William Gifford and was first published in 1839.

Persius, on the other hand, focused on the philosophical and moral aspects of life. His satires explore themes such as virtue, wisdom, and the pursuit of happiness.In this book, readers can expect to find a collection of Juvenal and Persius' most famous works. The translation by Gifford is highly regarded for its accuracy and clarity, making the book accessible to modern readers. Overall, Juvenal and Persius V1 is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient Roman literature and the art of satire. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and political issues of ancient Rome and the ways in which these issues were critiqued and satirized by two of the greatest satirists of their time.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
