Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Satyricon" by Petronius Arbiter is a celebrated work of ancient Roman literature, believed to have been written during the reign of Emperor Nero in the 1st century AD. This sprawling and irreverent novel is a satirical portrayal of Roman society, offering a vivid and often scandalous depiction of life in the Roman Empire. At its core, "The Satyricon" follows the escapades of Encolpius, a young man of uncertain origins, and his companions, as they journey through the cities and countryside of the Mediterranean world. The narrative is episodic in nature, with various adventures and misadventures unfolding along the way, often punctuated by bawdy humor, social critique, and philosophical reflection. One of the most famous episodes of "The Satyricon" is the "Dinner of Trimalchio," a lavish banquet hosted by a wealthy freedman that satirizes the excesses and pretensions of the Roman elite. Through this and other scenes, Petronius offers a biting critique of the decadence, hypocrisy, and moral decay of Roman society, while also providing a fascinating glimpse into its customs, beliefs, and everyday life. Despite its fragmentary nature (much of the original text has been lost), "The Satyricon" remains an invaluable and influential work of literature, admired for its wit, insight, and audacity. It has inspired countless artists, writers, and scholars over the centuries and continues to captivate readers with its vivid portrayal of ancient Rome and its timeless commentary on the human condition.

Download or read book Satyricon s Trimalchio written by Gaius Petronius and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the stories narrated, "Trimalchio" tells the story from beginning to end, though in bits and pieces; that is, in the fragments that have survived. When readers think of a dinner banquet in ancient times, what comes to mind is Plato's Symposium, in which Plato treats his readers to a discussion of the most delicious intellectual delicacies, such as the theme of love. In contrast what one finds in "Trimalchio," is a dinner of the most delicious culinary delicacies, and a dearth of intellectual discussion. The guests at the dinner table consist of gabby table-talkers who delight in conversing about the most trivial themes-supernatural tales- which they cap with obscene and vulgar behavior, such as the mistreatment of slaves and women. The nouveau riche Trimalchio, holds the dinner party at his grossly expensive estate, where a retinue of slaves, cooks, and servants, serve the guests with exotic, abundant, extravagant, and wasteful dishes. Given that F. Scott Fitzgerald's recreates such extravagant parties in his novel The Great Gatsby, he initially named the novel, Trimalchio. While both, Petronius and Fitzgerald, appear to have been concerned with portraying the moral decay that accompanies the noveau riche, Petronius' book manages to capture the spirit of ancient Rome, through its low characters; Fitzgerald fails to capture the spirit of New York in the 1920s. This selection presents only one story of the Satyricon: "Dinner at Trimalchio's." The reader should not expect all the stories of the Satyricon.
Download or read book Crazy Feasts written by Marilyn Ekdahl Ravicz and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2016-12-21 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CRAZY FEASTS is a culinary history cookbook that includes descriptions of ten banquets that were quite crazy or bizarre in several senses. Each feast is preceded by a short description of the location and historical setting in order to give a background for the dishes served, as well as for the particular kind of craziness involved. The feasts vary in historical depth from the Roman Empire period to the first decades of the twenty-first century. The locations include cities from Rome to other European capitals, as well as Mexico City, when it was called Tenochtitlan as the Spanish conquistadores entered it in the early sixteenth century. Each feast described was either an actual historical incident, or is an imagined banquet that could well have occurred given the culture and habits of the time. Each feast described is followed by recipes garnered from that culture and historical period. CRAZY FEASTS is a salute to human folly and the happy circumstances of glorious banquets meant to stimulate your sense of fun and folly should you decide to create a crazy feast of your own.
