Abstract

According to the ancient biography of Persius the poet left his book containing the satires unfinished. The text was emended by L. Annaeus Cornutus, the satirists master and friend, and the book was published by his friend, the poet Caesius Bassus. Because there is not any information of the form of Persius’book at the time of his premature death, the paper is focusing on the question: which principle is the book composition of satires based on?
