Ninety poems by Martial the first-century a.d. epigrammatist are presented with commentary in this edition. Selected on the basis of their thematic importance these concise poems provide an unique opportunity to interpret a significantly neglected author. The book considers the sociocultural and historical matrix from which the epigrams sprang and the Roman love of personal invective which sustains and enlivens a major portion of Martial''s work.
