Download or read book Petronius the Poet written by Catherine M. Connors and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the thirty short poems and two long ones that form part of Petronius' Satyricon, the oldest surviving work of prose fiction in the Western tradition. Unlike general studies of Petronius that do not consider the verse in much detail, and a recent commentary on the short poems that treats them in isolation, this book presents detailed close readings of these poems in their fictional and literary historical contexts. All Latin and Greek is translated.

Book The Hidden Author

Download or read book The Hidden Author written by Gian Biagio Conte and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Satyricon of Petronius, a comic novel written in the first century A.D., is famous today primarily for its amazing banquet tale, "Trimalchio's Feast." But this episode is only one part of the larger picture of life during Nero's rule presented in the work. In this accessible discussion of Petronius's masterful use of parody, Gian Biagio Conte offers an interpretation of the Satyricon as a whole. He combines the scholarly precision of close reading with a significant, original theoretical model. At the heart of his interpretation, Conte reveals the technique of the "hidden author" that Petronius employs at the expense of his characters, in particular the teller of the story, Enclopius. By remaining hidden outside the narrative, Petronius invites the reader to smile at the folies de grandeur that occur in a culture of scholars and declaimers. Yet as Conte shows, behind the parody and inexhaustible humor of the Satyricon lies an unexpectedly serious lament. For those familiar with the Satyricon, as well as for new readers, Conte's book will be a reliable, enjoyable guide to the wonders the Satyricon contains.

Book The Roman Novel

    Book Details:
  • Author : P.G. Walsh
  • Publisher : Bristol Classical Press
  • Release : 1998-01-01
  • ISBN : 9781853994500
  • Pages : 286 pages

Download or read book The Roman Novel written by P.G. Walsh and published by Bristol Classical Press. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Satyricon" of Petronius and the "Metamorphoses" (or "The Golden Ass") of Apuleius are the only novels written at Rome before AD 200 to have survived. The genre is the comic romance, the literature of relaxation in the ancient world. This study defines the genre and sets it in the context of other forms of fiction of the period. It shows that both Petronius and Apuleius introduced important innovations into the traditional comic romance. A critical study of "The Satyricon" is included, with a separate chapter on Trimalchio's feast, a central comic episode of the book. "The Golden Ass" is similarly examined, again with special analysis of its centre piece, the story of Cupid and Psyche. The book assesses the later influence of the two novels on the mainstream of European picaresque fiction.

  • Author : Petronius
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 1983-11-01
  • ISBN : 0452010055
  • Pages : 193 pages

Download or read book The Satyricon written by Petronius and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1983-11-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This version by a translator who understands the high art of low humor is conspicuously funny."—Time The Satyricon is a classic of comedy, a superbly funny picture of Nero's Rome as seen through the eyes of Petronius, its most amorous and elegant courtier. William Arrowsmith's translation—a lively, modern, unexpurgated text—recaptures all the ribald humor of Petronius's picaresque satire. It tells the hilarious story of the pleasure-seeking adventures of an educated rogue, Encolpius, his handsome serving boy, Giton, and Ascyltus, who lusts after Giton—three impure pilgrims who live by their wits and other men's purses. The Satyricon unfailingly turns every weakness of the flesh, every foible of the mind, to laughter.
