She treats the texts of Roman satire as drama and focuses on the characters whose voices are heared in these performances: the angry satirist, the mocking satirist and the smiling satirist. She goes on to explore the implications of the use of these \"masks\" for authors and audiences of satire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781853991394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Bristol Classical Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40619685380302,"sku":"9781853991394","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781853991394","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
