Assignment for Wednesday, 04.29.20

Dear Satirists,

For Wednesday, April 29, please do the following.

(1) Read and translate

  • Martial, Epigrams 26, 35, 80, and 18.

(2) Review carefully the compendium (sent via email) of your peers’ annotations on Freudenberg (2018). As before, ask yourselves these questions as you proceed.

  • What did you notice about the piece that your peers did not? And vice versa?
  • Would your peers’ annotations help them with a theoretical semester project on Roman satire? Why or why not?
  • What best practices for annotations might you extrapolate from the compendium?

Thanks again for agreeing to this special class session — one additional day has really made all the difference.
