Book The Arena of Satire

    Book Details:
  • Author : David H. J. Larmour
  • Publisher : University of Oklahoma Press
  • Release : 2016-01-04
  • ISBN : 0806155051
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book The Arena of Satire written by David H. J. Larmour and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2016-01-04 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first comprehensive reading of Juvenal’s satires in more than fifty years, David H. J. Larmour deftly revises and sharpens our understanding of the second-century Roman writer who stands as the archetype for all later practitioners of the satirist’s art. The enduring attraction of Juvenal’s satires is twofold: they not only introduce the character of the “angry satirist” but also offer vivid descriptions of everyday life in Rome at the height of the Empire. In Larmour’s interpretation, these two elements are inextricably linked. The Arena of Satire presents the satirist as flaneur traversing the streets of Rome in search of its authentic core—those distinctly Roman virtues that have disappeared amid the corruption of the age. What the vengeful, punishing satirist does to his victims, as Larmour shows, echoes what the Roman state did to outcasts and criminals in the arena of the Colosseum. The fact that the arena was the most prominent building in the city and is mentioned frequently by Juvenal makes it an ideal lens through which to examine the spectacular and punishing characteristics of Roman satire. And the fact that Juvenal undertakes his search for the uncorrupted, authentic Rome within the very buildings and landmarks that make up the actual, corrupt Rome of his day gives his sixteen satires their uniquely paradoxical and contradictory nature. Larmour’s exploration of “the arena of satire” guides us through Juvenal’s search for the true Rome, winding from one poem to the next. He combines close readings of passages from individual satires with discussions of Juvenal’s representation of Roman space and topography, the nature of the “arena” experience, and the network of connections among the satirist, the gladiator, and the editor—or producer—of Colosseum entertainments. The Arena of Satire also offers a new definition of “Juvenalian satire” as a particular form arising from the intersection of the body and the urban landscape—a form whose defining features survive in the works of several later satirists, from Jonathan Swift and Evelyn Waugh to contemporary writers such as Russian novelist Victor Pelevin and Irish dramatist Martin McDonagh.

Book Juvenal s Tenth Satire

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paul Murgatroyd
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2017
  • ISBN : 1786940698
  • Pages : 267 pages

Download or read book Juvenal s Tenth Satire written by Paul Murgatroyd and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not a commentary on Juvenal 10 but a critical appreciation of the poem which examines it on its own and in context and tries to make it come alive as a piece of literature, offering one man's close reading of Satire 10 as poetry, and concerned with literary criticism rather than philological minutiae. In line with the recent broadening of insight into Juvenal's writing this book often addresses the issues of distortion and problematizing and covers style, sound and diction as well. Much time is also devoted to intertextuality and to humour, wit and irony. This is something new: building on the work of scholars like Martyn, Jenkyns and Schmitz, who see in Juvenal a consistently skilful and sophisticated author, this is a whole book demonstrating a high level of expertise on Juvenal's part sustained throughout a long poem (rather than intermittent flashes). This investigation of 10 leads to the conclusion that Juvenal is an accomplished poet and provocative satirist, a writer with real focus, who makes every word count, and a final chapter exploring 11 and 12 confirms that assessment. Translation of the Latin and explanation of references are included so that Classics students will find the book easier to use and it will also be accessible to scholars and students interested in satire outside of Classics departments.

Book Thirteen Satires of Juvenal

  • Author : Decimus Iunius Iuvenalis
  • Publisher : Independently Published
  • Release : 2019-07-22
  • ISBN : 9781082021718
  • Pages : 340 pages

Download or read book Thirteen Satires of Juvenal written by Decimus Iunius Iuvenalis and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of John Mayor's 1853 commentary on the Roman satirist Juvenal was published in the years 1872 to 1879, and according to the author's preface was intended as a precursor to an even larger-scale study. Thirteen of Juvenal's satires are featured here (Satires 2, 6 and 9 are omitted) and a thorough commentary is given for each, guiding the reader through the poet's intricate language and a dense web of historical and mythological allusions. Mayor (1825-1910), who was elected Professor of Latin at Cambridge in 1872 and became one of the original Fellows of the British Academy, applied his extensive knowledge of thought and life in Imperial Rome to make this difficult material more approachable. Volume 1 contains the text of the satires, and Mayor's notes on the first five pieces in his selection.
