Explain how Persius deforms Horace’s satirical project and exposes the cultural and political excesses of the Neronian world. Chapter 4 features many insights into Juvenal although it seems rather short given the length and importance of his corpus, of each satire of which there is a short reading (…). H.’s investing of Juvenal with contemporary political significance reveals a programme consistent with that of other imperial (not just Flavian) poets who explore political issues through history and myth.
