Abstract

The translations of Martial’s works show errors of various kinds, caused by the conciseness of many of poet’s expressions, by misunderstandings of the structure of the epigrams or of a particular meaning of the terms. There are cases in which the unusual placement of words also causes errors at a syntactic level. All this obscures the poet’s thinking in whole or in part, as I have tried to demonstrate in the following pages.
