Summary:How do you insert yourself into an artistic canon? How do you establish yourself as a worthy successor to your predecessors while making your own mark on a genre? How do you police a genre?s boundaries to keep out the unwanted? With particular attention to authorial and national identity, artistic self-definition, and literary reception, this volume shows how four ancient Latin poets - Lucilius, Horace, Persius, and Juvenal - asked and answered these questions between the second century BCE and the second century CE as they invented and reinvented the genre of Roman verse Satire.
