C. Lucilii Saturarum Reliquiae [Latin]

By Franz Dorotheus Gerlach

C. Lucilii Saturarum Reliquiae presents a scholarly edition of the surviving fragments of the satires of Gaius Lucilius, a Roman poet of the 2nd century BCE. Edited by Franz Dorotheus Gerlach, this 1846 publication offers valuable insights into the origins of Roman satire. Lucilius is considered the founder of the genre, and his work provides a unique window into Roman society, culture, and politics during the Republic.

This collection, though fragmentary, showcases Lucilius's innovative use of language, his sharp wit, and his critical perspective on contemporary issues. Students and scholars of Latin literature will find this edition an essential resource for understanding the development of satire and the literary landscape of ancient Rome.
