Selected Epigrams of Martial is a book that contains a collection of witty and satirical poems written by the ancient Roman poet Marcus Valerius Martialis, also known as Martial. The poems, or epigrams, cover a wide range of topics including love, friendship, politics, and everyday life in ancient Rome. The book has been compiled and edited by H. M. Stephenson, who has carefully selected and translated the most interesting and entertaining epigrams from Martial's extensive body of work. The poems are presented in their original Latin alongside the English translation, allowing readers to appreciate the beauty and complexity of Martial's language. This book is an excellent introduction to the work of one of the most important poets of ancient Rome, and a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and culture of the Roman Empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
