Summary:An enormous turbot is presented to Emperor Domitian, who then calls upon his cabinet to determine the very best way to prepare the fish: This absurd situation provides occasion for Juvenal to undertake a broader critique of the decline of politics and morals during his time. This work re-examines Juvenal’s big fish satire through detailed scholarly commentary. It includes the original text along with a new Italian translation. Santorelli demonstrates that Juvenal's satire not only looks back at the earlier period of Domitian’s rule but also is intended as an indirect critique of the political system of the Optimus Princeps Trajan.
Ein riesiger Steinbutt wird Kaiser Domitian überreicht, der daraufhin sein Kabinett einberuft, um die beste Art, den Fisch zuzubereiten, festzulegen: eine absurde Situation, die Juvenal Anlass zu einer weiteren Kritik am Verfall von Politik und Moral seiner Zeit bietet. In diesem Buch wird die sogenannte Fischsatire durch einen ausführlichen Kommentar neu erschlossen. Der Text sowie eine neue italienische Übersetzung sind beigegeben. Santorelli weist nach, dass Juvenal mit seiner Satire nicht nur an die zurückliegende Herrschaftszeit Domitians erinnert, sondern zugleich indirekt Kritik am Regierungssystem des optimus princeps Trajan übt.
