About this book

Petronius’ Satyrica, one of the significant fictional texts of Antiquity, stands since decades in the focus of international research. This new commentary on the second half of the Satyrica presents the reader with all relevant information regarding the language, the “Realien” (antiquarian facts) and the novel’s plot. In addition it engages with the scholarly discussion on the novel and thus contributes to the Satyrica’s interpretation.

Author / Editor information

Peter Habermehl, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany.

Reviews

"Habermehl's commentary (on the Bellum civile) at once has become the master commentary." Gareth Schmeling ("A Commentary on the Satyrica of Petronius", Oxford 2011), in: GNOMON 95, 2023, 277-279

"Es ist ein absolutes Kunst- und Meisterstück, auf 31 Seiten auf ausgewogene Weise in die wesentlichen Züge von Lukans Bürgerkriegsepos und Petrons Bellum civile einzuführen: Die zunehmende Verdüsterung im lukanischen Epos, die Zeichnung der drei Protagonisten Cäsar, Pompeius und Cato, die Pharsalia als Anti-Aeneis, der Bruch mit dem epischen Götterapparat, die finsteren Unterweltsmächte als Metaphern für die historischen Ursachen des Bürgerkriegs – all das als notwendige Folie zu Petrons Bellum civile, das die 'erste uns bekannte Reaktion' (809) auf Lukans Pharsalia darstellt." Michael Lobe in: FORUM CLASSICUM 3, 2022, 272-274
