Descripción

This edition of Petronius's compelling work invites readers into the opulent world of Roman society, centered around the extravagant feast hosted by Trimalchio. Through rich and vivid prose, Petronius crafts a satirical portrayal of wealth and social pretension, highlighting the absurdities and follies of the elite during the Neronian era. The text serves not only as a feast for the imagination but also as a historical commentary, revealing the dynamics of class and culture of ancient Rome.

W. D. Lowe's meticulous translation and critical notes provide essential context, enhancing the reader's experience and understanding of the intricacies found within the narrative. The elegant leather binding and golden leaf accents suggest a timeless value, making this edition a worthy addition for both lovers of classic literature and collectors alike.
