This volume demonstrates that many of Roman satire's most distinctive features derived from Greek Old Comedy. Jennifer L. Ferriss-Hill closely analyzes the writings of Aristophanes, Horace, and Persius and considers their use of authors' personas, self-referential discussions, literary criticism as personal invective, and criticism of individuals, types, and language itself.
