006 - Vol 2 - The Dinner of Trimalchio Ch 27-37

Satyricon (or Satyrica) is a captivating Latin work that blends prose and poetry, attributed to Gaius Petronius, though often referred to as Titus Petronius in manuscript tradition. Often hailed as a Roman novel, this unique narrative offers a glimpse into the misadventures of Encolpius, the protagonist, and his youthful lover, Giton, a striking sixteen-year-old. Throughout their tumultuous relationship, Encolpius struggles to keep Giton faithful as he faces relentless temptations from others. His friend Ascyltus, who shares a complicated history with Encolpius, adds depth to the story. As one of the few surviving examples of Roman literature, Satyricon provides invaluable insights into the daily lives of the lower classes during the early Roman Empire.
