Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A Literary History of Rome in the Silver Age' offers a profound and detailed exploration of Latin literature during the transformative period following the death of Augustus. This work serves as an essential companion to understanding the evolution of Roman thought, rhetoric, and creative ex…pression from the reign of Tiberius through the era of Hadrian.The volume meticulously examines the distinct characteristics of the Silver Age, a time marked by a departure from the classical restraint of the Golden Age in favor of a more ornate, declamatory, and often cynical style. Readers will find insightful analysis of major literary figures, including the tragedies and philosophical essays of Seneca, the epic sweep of Lucan, the sharp satires of Juvenal and Persius, and the unparalleled historical narratives of Tacitus. The study also delves into the development of the novel through Petronius and the epigrammatic wit of Martial.Beyond individual biographies, this history situates Roman literature within its socio-political landscape, illustrating how the pressures of the Empire shaped the voices of its greatest writers. It remains a foundational text for students of classics and any reader interested in the enduring legacy of Rome's literary heritage.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
