Erotopægnion, sive Priapeia Veterum et Recentiorum

This audiobook gathers a mischievous chorus of verses that have celebrated the ancient fertility god Priapus from antiquity through the Enlightenment. The poems are raw, witty, and unabashedly erotic, offering a window into a tradition of bawdy humor that flourished in both scholarly circles and popular taverns.

The collection is organized into two parts: the ‘Priapea Veterum’ presents classical epigrams that tease lovers, farmers, and philosophers alike, while the ‘Priapeia Recentiorum’ adds later European renditions that play with language, satire, and occasional scandalous anecdotes. Readers will hear everything from quick jests about garden statues to elaborate allegories that blend myth with everyday desire.

Listeners should expect lively narration that preserves the rhythm and rhyme of the original Latin, often punctuated by cheeky commentary. Because of its explicit subject matter, the work is best suited for mature audiences who appreciate historical satire as much as sensual poetry. Enjoy a literary romp that bridges centuries of rib‑tickling irreverence.
