The Apocolocyntosis (divi) Claudii, literally The Gourdification of (the Divine) Claudius, is a political satire on the Roman emperor Claudius, probably written by Seneca the Younger. It is one of only two examples of Menippean satire from the classical era that have survived, the other being Petronius' Satyricon. The title plays upon "apotheosis," the process by which dead Roman emperors were recognized as gods. "Apocolocyntosis" is in fact Latinized Greek, and sometimes transliterated Apokolokyntosis. In the manuscripts the anonymous work bears the title Ludus de morte Divi Claudii ("Play on the death of the Divine Claudius"). The title Apokolokyntosis (Attic Greek, "Gourdification," sometimes also translated as "Pumpkinification") comes from the Roman historian Dio Cassius, who wrote in Greek. Dio Cassius attributed authorship of a satirical text on the death of Claudius, called Apokolokyntosis, to Seneca the Younger. Only much later was the work referred to by Dio Cassius identified (with some degree of uncertainty) with the "Ludus" text.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca, also known as Seneca, or Seneca the Younger, was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman and dramatist, who also acted as a tutor and adviser to emperor Nero. Attributed to Seneca is this political satire on the Roman emperor Claudius, Apocolocyntosis or The Pumpkinification of Claudius. The title, meaning "Pumpkinification" or "Gourdification" is a play upon "apotheosis", the process of recognizing a dead Roman emperor as a god.

This excellent print edition of Seneca's Apocolocyntosis contains the authoritative translation of W.H.D. Rouse, complete with footnotes. The Apocolocyntosis by Seneca is a satire aimed at the Roman Emperor Claudius. Together with Petronius's Satyricon, it holds the distinction of being the only surviving satire of the Menippean genre of classical antiquity. The title itself is a play upon words, with the term "apotheosis", connoting the process in which dead Roman emperors were recognized as Gods and deified. Intended as a comedy, the play chronicles the death of the Emperor Claudius, and his rise toward the heavens. However, the Gods cast judgment that he should instead descend to Hades - a sentence which Claudius contests, by appealing to the God Hercules. Thereafter begins a drama in the divine court, wherein Claudius deeds are held up and examined by several figures in the Greek Pantheon. Unfortunately, the speeches of each of the Gods sitting at court have been lost to time, although the plot of the Apocolocyntosis survives. Seneca himself felt wronged by Claudius, who had forcibly exiled him to the island of Corsica. There he conceived of this satire as a means of both revenge and of proving an important political point: that apotheosis as a custom had become overused and politicised, its original aim of venerating Emperor's good deeds diluted and sullied with a succession of less-than-able Emperors of Rome passing through office. Despite these obvious misgivings, the text still flatters the reigning Emperor Nero, complimenting the ruler's wisdom and wishing him long life.
