24-5-2021 EBC Satyrica

Hi everyone, for the month of May, the book club is reading Satyricon, a Roman novel from the first century, probably written by Gaius Petronius Arbiter. Satyricon was a reaction to the then popular love stories. Instead of the classic romantic couple, it focused on a trio from the lower regions of Roman society. The novel has been preserved in various medieval manuscripts. A critical edition appeared for the first time in 1664 and since then the work has been translated into many languages. It is considered one of the classics of Western literature! On 24 May at 19:30, the book will be discussed by the EBC, so come if you like to discuss this book
