This final edition of Mayors Juvenal, issued here in two Hardcover volumes (available separately or as a slip-cased set), should be an essential part of all professional Latinists reference libraries. Mayors commentary is comprehensive on details of life and thought in imperial Rome and on Latin diction. His long introduction, or advertisement sets an explosively volatile tone and his whole work reflects his passionate desire to save the modern world through classical wisdom.Hendersons introduction, geared to the needs of serious user and occasional browser alike, guides the reader in the use of Mayors commentary and explains its gestation and the mode of thinking it sought to incarnate. A substantial bibliography on both Mayor and Juvenal is also included.
