AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Juvenal (Decimus Junius Juvenalis) and Persius (Aulus Persius Flaccus) - Satires - London: printed by J. Brindley - 1744

This edition by Jean Brindley is sought after by bibliophiles for its elegant typography and its characteristic pocket format.

Juvenal (c. 55–c. 130 AD) was a Roman satirical poet famous for his sharp critiques of the corruption and morals of imperial society under Domitian and his successors. His sixteen satires employ vigorous rhetoric to denounce Rome’s vices, popularizing expressions such as "bread and circuses." This collection gathers his moral observations written in a climate of political tension where freedom of speech was often perilous.

The period full-leather binding has a front board that is coming loose.
