Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Latin by Art Beck. The author of poems and epigrams, 6thcentury Roman poet Luxoriusthe "North African Martial"is known to have lived in Carthage during the last years of the Vandal occupation, more specifically during the reigns of the Vandal kings Thrasamund, Hilderic and Gelimer (AD 496534). As with many poets and thinkers of his day, the only information available has been deduced from the analysis of primary texts, namely his epigrams, contained in the Anthologia Latina, edited by F. Bcheler and A. Riese (1894), and later in Luxorius: a Latin poet among the Vandals, translated by Morris Rosenblum (1961). Linguistically and culturally, Luxorius' work straddles the Classical and Medieval periods, and OPERA OMNIA is the only complete selection of all of his surviving poems in an Englishlanguage edition. The Latin originals are presented alongside Art Beck's skillful translations.
