Despite his enduring popularity, Martial has recently suffered from serious critical neglect. The present work is the first edition of selections from Martial to be published for decades, and includes a fully representative selection of the oeuvre of the poet, who has often been criticised, unfairly, the authors argue, for obscenity and flattery of the Emperor Domitian. The epigrams included in the selection are organised under various heads, e.g. Martial and poetry, sexual mores, satirical pieces. A very full introduction deals with such topics as the prejudices and predilections of his audience which conditioned Martial's choice of subject matter, Martial's language, the structure and style of the epigrams, the epigrammatic tradition and Martial's creative engagement with it. The detailed commentary is suitable for use with undergraduates and is distinguished by its focus on social history as well as literary interpretation.

Excerpt from Select Epigrams of Martial: Books VII-XII Tms edition of selected epigrams from the last six books of Martial is intended for the use of upper forms in schools. There are two reasons why Martial should be read in these forms. In the first place, his epigrams belong to a distinct species of literature, characteristically Roman both in form and matter. Secondly, Martial throws a valuable and instructive light on the social life of Rome in the first century of our era. If these are the two reasons why boys still at school should read Martial, yet it is probably true that they should read him rapidly and without the rigid attention to detail which is necessary in studying the best classical writers. It has been our aim, there fore, to keep our notes concise, and not to fill the place of the dictionary and the atlas, but, as far as possible, to make clear the thought and point of each epigram. With this end in view a short abstract of the meaning is prefixed to the notes on each poem, but few attempts have been made to supply ready-made translation. In the Introduction has been added a connected account of certain features of Roman life which are constantly referred to in the epigrams; this seemed better than writing short and scattered notes on the passages concerned. We have also given a biographical index of some of the proper names occurring in the text, and we hope that our general index may be of use in finding references in the poet to the many features of Roman life on which he touches.

Excerpt from Selected Epigrams of Martial: Edited, With Introduction and Notes This volume is offered to the public with the belief that the selections herein found arc sufficient in number and variety to illustrate fully the epigram as a form of literature and to afford valuable collateral information to those interested in Roman private life. However, in selecting the epigrams a wider interest in the subject matter has been continually kept in mind and the text has been so annotated as to make the book serviceable in an ordinary reading course. To mention all the places in which preceding editors have been of help to me in the preparation of the commentary would smack of pedantry. I may, however, be allowed to say that my own annotations were originally worked out without reference to any other commentary. Subsequently most of the scholars who have devoted study to Martial, mediaeval and modern, were consulted, and attempt has been made, in introduction and commentary, to credit the proper sources with all that did not fairly appear to be common property. The text as edited by Mr. J. D. Duff for Professor Postgate's Corpus, as well as M. Gaston Boissier's monograph on Martial, I did not have in time for any use in preparing my manuscript. It goes without saying that in common with all recent students of Martial I have a large debt to pay to Professor Lindsay for his work upon the text. The numbers of the epigrams found in this book have been made to conform to those in his (Oxford) text edition.
