Description
"In this age of the sound bite, what author could be more relevant than the master of the epigram? Surprisingly, Martial, the most influential epigrammatist of classical antiquity, has been largely neglected in contemporary scholarship. Arguing that Martial is a major author who deserves more sustained attention, William Fitzgerald provides an insightful tour of his works, shedding new and much-needed light on the Roman poet's world - and how it might speak to our own."--BOOK JACKET.
