Two thousand years after his death Horace is still recognised as a unique poet. This collection, first published in 1973, explores the different aspects of Horace's poetic achievement in his main works: the Odes, Epistles¿ Satires and Ars Poetica. The essays, written by internationally-known scholars, include a discussion of the Satires and a study of the Odes. The final chapter concentrates on the many English translations which Horace inspired up to the seventeenth century. The expert criticism is illustrated throughout by English translations from the original Latin texts. Horace will appeal to students and scholars of Latin poetry alike, as well as to those interested in the reception of classical literature throughout European history.
