书籍简介

Loeb古典图书馆的新版本捕捉到了两位古代讽刺作家的咬合力和机智，这是对拉丁文本的生动和有力的翻译。

Persius（公元34-62年）和Juvenal（大约60年后写作）是Lucilius和Horace开发的拉丁文讽刺诗风格的继承者，Susanna Braund的介绍和注释中挖掘了这个传统。她的注释还为文学和历史典故提供了指导，这些典故在珀西乌斯和尤韦纳尔的讽刺诗中占了很大比重--这些诗显然是针对成熟的城市观众的。两位诗人都戴着愤怒者的面具，在他们的讽刺诗中对他们所处的社会进行了尖锐的批评，并结合了尖刻的幽默。无论是针对常见和不常见的恶习、祈祷者的愚蠢、皇帝和罗马精英的滥用权力、罗马妻子的愚蠢和堕落，还是颓废、物质主义和腐败，他们的语气一般都是义愤填膺的。

尤韦纳尔和珀西乌斯是讽刺文学史上的开创性人物，也是明星人物。尤韦纳尔对文艺复兴时期和随后几个世纪的英国作家产生了持久的影响。

The bite and wit of two of antiquity's best satirists are captured here in a new Loeb Classical Library edition, a vivid and vigorous translation facing the Latin text.

Persius (34-62 CE) and Juvenal (writing maybe 60 years later) were heirs to the style of Latin verse satire developed by Lucilius and Horace, a tradition mined in Susanna Braund's introduction and notes. Her notes also give guidance to the literary and historical allusions that pepper Persius's and Juvenal's satirical poems--which were clearly aimed at a sophisticated urban audience. Both poets adopt the mask of an angry man, and sharp criticism of the society in which they live is combined with flashes of sardonic humor in their satires. Whether targeting common and uncommon vices, the foolishness of prayers, the abuse of power by emperors and the Roman elite, the folly and depravity of Roman wives, or decadence, materialism, and corruption, their tone is generally one of righteous indignation.

Juvenal and Persius are seminal as well as stellar figures in the history of satirical writing. Juvenal especially had a lasting influence on English writers of the Renaissance and succeeding centuries.
