en-wikipedia-org-1789		Persius - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	2436	287	65	Aulus Persius Flaccus (/ˈpɜːrʃiəs, ˈpɜːrʃəs/; 4 December 34 – 24 November 62) was a Roman poet and satirist of Etruscan origin. According to the Life contained in the manuscripts, Persius was born into an equestrian family at Volterra (Volaterrae, in Latin), a small Etruscan city in the province of Pisa, of good stock on both parents' side. The chief interest of Persius's work lies in its relation to Roman satire, in its interpretation of Roman Stoicism, and in its use of the Latin tongue. Some of the parallel passages in the works of Persius and Seneca are very close, and cannot be explained by assuming the use of a common source.
