'The commentary is meticulous, clear in its style and organization and exceptionally well informed ... we could not hope for a better account of martial in his cultural, historical and literary context.

Synopsis
Despite his enduring popularity, Martial has recently suffered from serious critical neglect. The present work is the first edition of selections from Martial to be published for decades, and includes a fully representative selection of the oeuvre of the poet, who has often been criticised, unfairly, the authors argue, for obscenity and flattery of the Emperor Domitian. The epigrams included in the selection are organised under various heads, e.g. Martial and poetry, sexual mores, satirical pieces. A very full introduction deals with such topics as the prejudices and predilections of his audience which conditioned Martial's choice of subject matter, Martial's language, the structure and style of the epigrams, the epigrammatic tradition and Martial's creative engagement with it. The detailed commentary is suitable for use with undergraduates and is distinguished by its focus on social history as well as literary interpretation., Ninety poems by Martial, the first-century a.d. epigrammatist, are presented, with commentary, in this edition. Selected on the basis of their thematic importance, these concise poems provide an unique opportunity to interpret a significantly neglected author. The book considers the sociocultural and historical matrix from which the epigrams sprang and the Roman love of personal invective which sustains and enlivens a major portion of Martial's work., A representative selection of the poems of the first-century AD epigrammatist Martial is presented in this edition, together with a very full introduction and commentary suitable for use with students. There is a strong focus on social history as well as extensive discussion of questions of literary interpretation.

    I'm so glad you're happy with the card. I'll definitely visit the museum of Greyhawk antiquities you're putting together. So many warm nostalgic feelings looking over that old D&D stuff -- wish I still had time, like when I was a kid collecting this stuff. It's good to know it's going somewhere that people will still be able to enjoy it.

    Everything was shipped and packed properly, as said, nm/vf. All the items were in place and packed properly, the box it came in was perfect too. The value of the items was good too, and the set 1-21 was as described by the seller and shipped that way. I will buy again from NFC.

    You're absolutely right - it was difficult to part with this one. I hope your gaming group gets a lot of rowdy enjoyment out of it, as mine did!
