Selected Epigrams of Martial is a collection of witty and satirical poems written by the ancient Roman poet Martialis, also known as Marcus Valerius Martialis. The book contains a selection of his best epigrams, which are short, pithy poems that often poke fun at the follies and vices of Roman society. The poems cover a wide range of topics, including love, sex, politics, religion, and daily life in ancient Rome. Martialis' writing is characterized by his sharp wit, clever wordplay, and keen observations of human behavior. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient Rome and the literary culture of the time. It is an excellent read for anyone interested in classical literature or the history of Rome.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
