Opis

This is the first modern commentary devoted exclusively to the epigrams of Lucillius, a prolific Neronian poet who, in spite of being one of the most significant representatives of the Greek satirical epigram, has primarily been studied not for his own value, but for the influence he had on Martial. The volume contains an extensive introduction, a new critical text and translation, and a full literary and philological commentary.

Recenzje

"Floridi provides an excellent tool for scholars who wish to learn more about Lucillius and about humour in general in antiquity, as well as about e.g. athletics and social categories. This volume provides a much needed foundation on Lucillius, and leads the way for further research on the author and on the skoptic genre."Cosetta Cadau in: Mnemosyne 1/2016
