and Persius, translated by William GiffordJuvenal And Persius V2 is a book that contains the works of two ancient Roman satirists, Juvenal and Persius, translated into English by William Gifford. The book is the second volume in a series of translations of the works of these two poets. Juvenal was a Roman poet who lived in the late first and early second centuries AD. He is known for his satirical poems, which criticized the corruption and decadence of Roman society. Persius was a younger contemporary of Juvenal, who also wrote satirical poetry. The book contains a selection of poems by both Juvenal and Persius, translated into English. The translations aim to capture the wit, humor, and biting social commentary of the original works. The poems cover a range of topics, from the excesses of the Roman elite to the hypocrisy of religious leaders. They offer a fascinating insight into the social and political issues of ancient Rome, as well as the literary traditions of satire and poetry. Overall, Juvenal And Persius V2 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the works of these two ancient Roman poets, as well as the history and culture of ancient Rome.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.
