Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on fifteen key Odes by the Roman poet, Quintus Horatius Flaccus (65-8 BCE). It explores how Horace uses personal experiences and historical narrative in his poetry to universalize themes such as love, friendship, virtue, and the brevity of life. The author places the Odes within the broader context of both Horace's career and the literary and historical context of Augustan Rome, allowing the reader to grasp the significance that the Odes have on our understanding of the time. The author handles the subject in a lively and conversational style, making it accessible to both scholars and beginning students of Horace. The ideas in Horace's Odes are still relevant today, and this book will be of value to anyone interested in the enduring qualities of Roman literature and culture.
