Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This wide-ranging selection showcases the work of one of ancient Romeâs master poetsâand originator of the phrase âcarpe diemââwhose influence on poetry can be traced through the centuries into our own time.
Quintus Horatius Flaccus, who lived from 65 to 8 BCE, saw the death of the Roman Republic and the beginning of the Roman Empire and was personally acquainted with the emperor Augustus and the poet Virgil. He was famous during his lifetime and since for his odes and epodes, for his satires and epistles, and for Ars Poetica. His lyric poems, brief and allusive, have been translated into English by a range of famous poets, including Milton, Ben Jonson, John Dryden, William Cowper, A. E. Housman, Ezra Pound, Louis MacNeice, Robert Lowellâand even Queen Elizabeth I and the Victorian prime minister William Gladstone.
Horaceâs masterly verses have inspired poets from antiquity to modernity, and his injunction to âseize the dayâ has echoed through the ages. This anthology of superb English translations shows how Horace has permeated English literature for five centuries.
