The Saturnalia, Macrobius' encyclopaedic celebration of Roman
culture, has been prized since the Renaissance as a treasure trove
of ancient lore, much of it otherwise unattested. Cast in the form
of a dialogue and arranged (by modern editors) in seven books, it
treats subjects as diverse as the divinity of the Sun and the
quirks of human digestion, and above all the poetry of Vergil, whom
it presents as the master of all human knowledge, from diction and
rhetoric to philosophy and religion. This new edition provides a
significantly improved text and critical apparatus.
