Focusing on the artistic nature of Roman verse satire, this collection of essays challenges the notion that it serves merely as a social document or expression of protest. The author argues that satirists like Juvenal, Horace, and Persius crafted their works as literary forms, emphasizing the constructed roles of their first-person speakers. By examining the use of metaphors, similes, and contemporary themes, the essays aim to clarify the artistic intentions behind Roman satire, moving beyond romantic-era misinterpretations.
