Twenty-one essays make a cogent case for reading Latin poet Horace as a verse form innovator--E.A. Fredricksmeyer seconds spring-song Odes 4.7 as a candidate for the most beautiful poem in ancient literature; espouser of the carpe diem theme in his love poems; and astute observer of Augustan era politics. In reprinted articles from classical studies journals and books (1956-89), the contributors address the Odes from Books 1-3 circa 30-23 BC, plus the Satire from his first publication of 35 BC.

This fascinating study of one of the greatest poets of the Augustan age sheds new light on Horace's works, combining literary analysis with an investigation into the poet's social and political circumstances. Lyne focuses on the poet's relations with his patron Maecenas, with the Emperor Augustus and with other grandees. Describing his background, the book considers how and why Horace came to rely on patronage, and looks at the nature of that patronage. It identifies the point at which Horace adopted the role of political poet and shows how he evolved a public poetry for his particular society. Horace was a master of personal insinuation, as well as a fine maker of public poetry. Lyne reveals him a master, too, in the art of ordering his works, positioning his poems with skill and subtlety. Looking closely at poems from the 'Satires', 'Odes' and 'Epistles', Lyne demonstrates how Horace neatly balanced deference to the great with careful assertion of his own social and political standing. He finds instances where Horace teases his original recipients - and his wider audience. He investigates why the poet set aside his great political lyric in 23 B.C. and resumed it in 17 B.C.. Examining Odes in Book 4, Lyne contends that behind the public face, Horace exhibits resentment, recording views that undermine earlier patriotic statements. Horace's political utterances are always interesting, invariably well-composed, often independent. His is the public voice of Augustan society, and his literature reflects the pressures and nuances of that society, as well as revealing an image of the poet himself. R.O.A.M. Lyne was Fellow and Tutor in Classics at Balliol College, Oxford. Among his books are 'Ciris: A Poem Attributed to Vergil' (1978), 'The Latin Love Poets, from Catullus to Horace' (1980), 'Further Voices in Vergil's Aeneid' (1987), 'Words and the Poet: Characteristic Techniques of Style in Vergil's Aeneid' (1989).

Horace written by Paul Allen Miller and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2019 with LITERARY CRITICISM categories.

Perhaps no classical writer has been so consistently in vogue as Horace. Famous in his own lifetime as a close associate of the Emperor Octavian, to whom he dedicated several odes, Quintus Horatius Flaccus (65-8 BC) has never really been out of fashion. Petrarch, for example, modelled his letters on Horace's innovative Epistles, while also borrowing from his Roman forebear in composing his own Italian sonnets. The echo of Horace's voice can be found in almost every genre of medieval literature. And in later periods, this influence and popularity if anything increased. Yet, as Paul Allen Miller shows, while Horace may justifiably be called the poet for all seasons he is also in the end an enigma. His elusive, ironic contrariness is perhaps the true secret of his success. A cultured man of letters, he fought on the losing side of the Battle of Philippi (42 BC). A staunch Republican, he ended up eagerly (some said too eagerly) promoting the cause of Julio-Claudian imperialism. Viewed as the acme of Roman literary civilization, he was shaped by his Athens education at Plato's famous Academy. This new introduction reveals Horace in all his paradoxical genius and complexity.
