Publisher's Synopsis

Argues that Martial with his poetry played a serious and vital role in his community as a social guide or conscience. The book's approach to Martial's poetry places him within the reactionary tradition of Indo-European blame/praise poetry. It helps us understand, and appreciate his themes and methods, and the effect of his poetry.
