This is the OCR-endorsed edition covering the Latin AS and A-Level
(Group 3) prescription of Juvenal, Satire 6 and the A-Level (Group
4) prescription of Satires 14 and 15, giving full Latin text,
commentary and vocabulary, with a detailed introduction that also
covers the prescribed material to be read in English for A Level.
Juvenal was the last and the greatest of the Roman verse satirists
and his poetry gives us an exuberant and outrageously jaundiced
view of the early Roman Empire. This book contains a selection from
three of his satires: Satire 6 attacks women and marriage, Satire
14 critiques the role played by parents in the education of
children and Satire 15 describes all too vividly the cannibalism
perpetrated by warring Egyptians. These Satires expose the folly
and the wickedness of the world in some of the finest Latin to have
survived from antiquity. Supporting resources are available on the
Companion Website:
