"Petronius: A Handbook unravels the mysteries of the Satyrica, one of the greatest literary works that antiquity has bequeathed to the modern world. Features include: a dozen original essays by a team of leading Petronius and Roman history scholars; features the first multi-dimensional approach to Satyricon studies by exploring the novel's literary structure, social and historic contexts, and modern reception; and, supplemented by illustrations, plot outline, glossary, map, bibliography, and suggestions for further reading."--BOOK JACKET.
