This volume collects the poetry and prose that served as the model
and inspiration for so much of fin-de-siecle English and French
writing, providing a vivid picture of sexual excess and debauchery
in a cruel and violent society which has never ceased to fascinate
the library and scholarly imagination of succeeding generations.
The editor, novelist Geoffrey Farrington, provides a general
introduction to the literary and political milieux of imperial
Rome, and introductory notes to works by such authors as Ovid,
Tacitus, Suetonius, and Juvenal.
