Martial, the father of the epigram and perhaps its greatest exponent, was one of the brilliant provincial poets who made a literary mark on first-century Rome. Now, in this landmark reissue of James Michie's 1972 translation, the Modern Library breathes new life into the wit and wisdom of an ancient poet with a unique and surprisingly contemporary perspective. This edition includes the translator's original endnotes.
