Figuring Genre in Roman Satire - Society for Classical Studies American Classical Studies
Keane, Catherine (Assistant Professor of Classics, Assistant Professor of Classics, Washington University)
Horace, Persius, and Juvenal, the verse satirists of ancient Rome, developed a unique mode of social criticism by borrowing from their culture's existing methods of entertainment and moral judgment. Keane's analysis of the satiric genre reveals its debt to four key Roman practices: theater, public violence, legal process, and teaching.
