Latin Literature Tournament - Round 1
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda under the cut!
Persius Propaganda:
When it comes to satire, he's way more earnest and genuine than Juvenal, who reads like a Fox and Friends special
Discusses Stoic themes in a way that makes for a really important point of comparison for Seneca
Lucan loved him
Catullus Propaganda:
When I was teaching Latin, one of my 8th grad students said of Catullus "He's the worst man who ever lived. I love him."
The only Roman writer to talk about clit envy
Fucking loved Sappho, so you know he has good taste

In the native dialect of Lesbos, Sappho's name is spelled "Psappho". I sometimes picture what it would have been like if that had been the spelling modern English had gone with. Imagine being psapphic.

Sometimes I remember that all lesbianism is named after 1 really gay lady from 4000 years ago. Whether you use the term Sapphic or lesbian, it still is from her which is hilarious, hope she enjoys being women loving incarnate
