More about the book

In the Saturnalian dialogues (1582) Lipsius describes all aspects of the gladiatorial combats. This theme fits perfectly well into his other historiographical works about roman customs and institutions, but above all he presents the gladiators as enlightening examples in his stoic ethical theory. Lipsius bespricht in den Saturnaliengespräche (1582) hauptsächlich die Gladiatorenspiele. Dieses Thema schließt an bei Lipsius’ anderen historiographischen Werken über römische Gebräuche und Einrichtungen, vor allem aber verwendet er die Gladiatoren als leuchtende Vorbilder um seiner stoischen Lehre Nachdruck zu verleihen.
