The Satyricon is the most celebrated prose work to have survived from the ancient world. It can be described as the first realistic novel, the father of the picaresque genre. It recounts the sleazy progress of a pair of literate scholars as they wander through the cities of the southernMediterranean in the age of Nero, encountering en route type-figures whom the author wishes to satirize. P.G. Walsh captures the spirit of the original in this new and lively translation. His introduction and detailed notes provide the reader with a comprehensive guide to the meanings and intentionsof the story and the later history of its literary influence.… (mere)
Si bien es un escrito fragmentado, contiene descripciones valiosísimas, historias, menciones, etc. Además nos muestra muchos tipos de situaciones pintorescas y en ocasiones una forma de escribir de una belleza excelsa. ( )
Satíricon é uma obra da literatura latina de autoria do prosador romano Petrônio, escrita provavelmente próximo do ano 60 d.C., que descreve as aventuras e desventuras do narrador, Encólpio, do seu amante Ascilto e do servo, o jovem Gitão, que se intromete entre os dois amantes provocando ciúme e discussão. Juntamente com o poeta Eumolpo, embarcam em aventuras diversas acabando naufragados nas mãos de Circe, uma sacerdotisa do deus Príapo.
The best way to read this fragmented masterpiece is by doing it between the walls of a university library, surrounded by droves of people intent on cramming for their upcoming exams. You're guaranteed to be eyed viciously by the students who have enough nosiness to inquire on the book sitting upright in your hands, but that's just part of the fun. I would absolutely like to read the missing chapters before my departure from this world. ( )

Werden denn unsere Rhetoren von einer anderen Art Besessenheit ergriffen, wenn sie ausrufen: "Wunden erlitt ich im Kampf für die Freiheit unseres Landes, dies Auge verlor ich im Kampfe für euch, gebet mir einen Führer, der mich zu meinen Kindern führe, denn zerhaunes Kniegelenk trägt den schwachen Leib nicht mehr".
Aber ergreift unsere Sprecher eine andere Art von Wut, die da schreien: "Für die Freiheit des Vaterlandes empfing ich diese Wunden! Dieses Auge habt ihr mich gekostet! (übersetzt von Wilhelm Heinse)
