Description
The Satyricon Petronius - The Satyricon is the most celebrated prose work to have survived from the ancient world.
It can be described as the first realistic novel, the father of the picaresque genre.
It recounts the sleazy progress of a pair of literate scholars as they wander through the cities of the southernMediterranean in the age of Nero, encountering en route type-figures whom the author wishes to satirize.
P.G. Walsh captures the spirit of the original in this new and lively translation.
His introduction and detailed notes provide the reader with a comprehensive guide to the meanings and intentions of the story and the later history of its literary influence.
