Aulus Persius Flaccus (A.D. 34-62) wrote in racy conversational
Latin six satires countering contemporary vice with Stoic morality;
he died young. This is not easy poetry, with its sudden shifts of
tone, switches of speaker and situation, vivid evocation of the
everyday roman background, and confident handling of philosophical
positions. But it is still a good read. This edition prints the
Latin text faced with a brilliant verse translation by Guy Lee. The
introduction and commentary provided by William Barr make it a
suitable class text.
