Opis

Catullus 76 opens with the plaintive cry -"Catullus, may remembrance of good works performed be one of life's enduring pleasures." The items selected for this collection represent by the number the main body of Catullus good works. They are delicacies of poetic thought in which the poet shares with friends from his social group his deepest feelings as well as rebukes, curses, slurs and other tidbits of social discourse. The networker of his time, Catullus' interpersonal confidences and outcries are rendered here as blogs and tweets because that is what they are.
