High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Xenien was the title which Roman poet Martial applied to a collection of his poems which were to accompany his presents.

The Xenien succeeded as a retaliation on the critics, but the masterpieces which followed them proved in the long run much more effective weapons against the prevailing mediocrity.
