The Epigrams
Martial
Martial was born in Bibilis, Spain, probably around 38-41 AD. His poems are definitely modelled off of Catullus' epigrams and elegiac verses, although they are different in meaning and theme. These poems are hilarious and audacious, cruel, lewd, charming, spiteful, and creative; and they bring to life the social and political milieu of Rome.
