It is quite bizarre that a culture so besotted with food and all
things relating to the stomach and the senses should have left but
one cookery book. The curious, therefore, must resort to other
sources of inspiration for information about the Romans at table.
Not least among these sources is the poetry of men such as Horace,
Martial, Juvenal, Catullus, Ovid, Livy and Seneca, here translated
with grace and aplomb by the Latin scholar and poet Alistair
Elliot. This work contains the Latin and English as parallels on
facing pages. Alistair Elliot is a classical teacher and scholar,
as well as a recognized poet.
