Horace’s two satires and Juvenal’s (Satire II) before reading next Monday’s Lecture

Please read Horace’s two satires and Juvenal’s (Satire II) before reading next Monday’s Lecture. Do not worry if you find the works tricky to understand as they were written in Ancient Rome (approximately 20 centuries ago!) The reading response assignment involves your personal opinion, reactions only. NOTE: Please be advised that Juvenal’s Satire II is a homophobic satire. The text is offered as an example of Juvenal’s typical style and targets. Juvenal’s handling of his target is offensive to the modern reader. His position is not condoned by the inclusion of Satire II in the course. You will be writing a short reflection (worth 5%) on Horace and Juvenal.
