Martial
LAT 335
Spring 2023
Section: 01  

This half-credit course will explore a variety of themes in Martial's "Epigrams." Underappreciated today, the "Epigrams" depict friendships, rivalries, sexualities, ethnicities, violence, gender roles, professions, aspirations, and failures in a sharp social commentary on the imperial Roman world. In addition to weekly translation, we will survey the latest scholarly literature on Martial's corpus.
