englischJuvenal (approx. AD 60–140) was the last important representative of Roman satire in verse. His influence on the genre has made a significant impact on our understanding of the satiric mode.

The introduction provides an overview regarding questions of a literary-theoretical as well as a socio-historic nature, which are quintessential for a comprehensive reading of Juvenal’s satires: the connection between author and narrator (persona theory), the no-longer-functioning relationship between client and patron (amicitia), the behaviour of men and women of the social and political elite diverging from traditional gender roles, concepts of homosexuality etc.
