The book not only restores the text by comparing copies of both editions but also accompanies it with an in-depth study that analyzes the educational context of post-Tridentine Spain, the figure of López, and his method of moralizing commentary. It is an essential tool for understanding the reception of Latin classics in the Spanish Golden Age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core of the book is the annotated edition of Diego López's version of the satires of Aulus Persius Flaccus, a 1st-century AD Latin poet known for his complex style and moral criticism. The author, Abigail Castellano, has performed exhaustive philological work: she has collated two copies of the 1609 edition and two of the 1642 edition to establish a reliable text and has collected all variants in a critical apparatus. Beyond the edition, the preliminary study examines the figure of Diego López as a translator and commentator, his relationship with Renaissance humanism, and how his interpretation moralized Persius to make him compatible with the Catholic orthodoxy of the time. Documentary appendices on the life and work of López are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritical and philological edition of a classic text from the Golden Age.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTranslation and commentary of the \u003ci\u003eSatires\u003c\/i\u003e of Aulus Persius Flaccus.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHumanism and the teaching of Latin in post-Tridentine Spain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe figure of the humanist Diego López and his method of moralizing commentary.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReception and transmission of Latin classical authors in the 17th century.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at classical philologists, researchers of Spanish Golden Age literature, historians of education and humanism, as well as postgraduate students interested in textual transmission and the reception of the classics.
