«La Guerra de los Dioses» is the satirical, anticlerical verse novel by Évariste Parny, published by Ma Non Troppo in hardback (258 pages, in Spanish).
The poem recounts how Emperor Constantine replaces the Greco-Roman gods with the Christian Trinity. The deities try to coexist with the newcomers, but Heaven grows too small and war breaks out: battles often turn into amorous encounters. A libertine and anticlerical satire, with irreverence bordering on the pornographic.
Clásicos Iconoclastas collection. First edition in Spain, with prologue and prose translation by Eduardo Moga, winner of the Adonáis poetry prize in 1995, and complete text of the 1804 French edition.
Aimed at readers of classical fiction and eighteenth-century libertine satire.
