Gaius Valerius Catullus (c. 84-54 BCE), one of the finest lyrical
poets of classical times, was also among the bawdiest. He was
capable of producing poems of such forthright and ribald sensuality
that until recently they were all too often relegated to
collections of erotica to protect the innocent minds of
impressionable students. This collection of Catullus' poems
incorporates the original Latin text and a facing English
translation by James Michie, which is contemporary and lively,
matching the spirit of the original, and also reveals the poets as
he really was: a worldly, lusty man writing for his turbulent age.
