Tapa dura. Etat : Bien. Texto en ingl�s. Tapa blanda de editorial ilustrada. Como nuevo. Excerpt from Quinti Horatii Flacci Opera Omnia, Vol. 2: The Works of Horace; The Satires, Epistles, and De Arte Poetica May I make two requests of the younger readers whose needs I have had speciallyin view - one, that they will read, both before beginning a Satire or Epistle, and also side by side with it, the analysis which I have prefixed to it and without which the commentary will be incomplete; the other, that they will not be deluded, by what has seemed the unhappy necessity of employing inverted commas for the double purpose, into mistaking interpretative para phrase for translation? The latter I have attempted rarely; the former is often a convenient and necessary substitute for a long note. Libro. N� de r�f. du vendeur 84899
