Second of 2 volumes in 8vo. pp. [4], 259-516. Includes illustrations.
Translation of the Satyricon by Petronius Arbiter, the fragmentary Latin fiction work about the live of lower classes during the Roman Empire, published as a very expensive limited edition: the verso of the title page verso of volume one states: "This edition is strictly limited to twelve hundred and fifty sets, of which 1200 numbered sets are for subscribers." The present copy is number 1011. Firebaugh’s translation contains the spurious supplements by of François Nodot and José Marchena, who aimed at completing the fragmentary original, but Firebaugh clearly indicates which part of the text was original and which was spurious.
