Summary
Decim Junius Juvenal: The Sixth Satire
Sixteen satires in hexameters, arranged in five books (almost 4000 verses), the only work that Juvenal wrote, or the only one that has been preserved, confronts us with what is not present or is completely secondary in the works of his most famous contemporaries - what did not belong in Tacitus' powerful and harsh political history, which in the elegant Pliny the Younger is gentle pushed under the carpet, which the idealist and pedagogue Quintilian skips, which did not exist for Staci's rococo larpurartism, which only Martial touches and twists in a joke: Juvenal plunges us into the nightmarish daily life of Rome - the great city, raiding all layers of its population, from emperors and senators to prostitutes and servants, continuing the work that, more easily and without disappointment, Petronius began before him with his Satyricon.
