Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Horace's Life and Character: Second Supplement They could not come to terms For rivals, as in battle so in law, Are stubborn in proportion to their strength. In Hector and Achilles this appear'd, Since death alone could terminate their feud, Because in either valour was supreme. If strife arise between two faineants, Or strong and weak like Diomede of Greece And Lycian Glaucus, let the weak give way And make amends - When Praetor Brutus held Rich Asia, banish'a Rex and Persius met, Well pair'd as Bitbus was with Bacchius, And into court they came, a sight to see.

Book Perceptions of Horace

  • Author : L. B. T. Houghton
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2009-12-03
  • ISBN : 9780521765084
  • Pages : 380 pages

Download or read book Perceptions of Horace written by L. B. T. Houghton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-12-03 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his work, the Roman poet Horace displays many, sometimes conflicting, faces: these include dutiful son, expert lover, gentleman farmer, man about town, outsider, poet laureate, sharp satirist and measured moraliser. This book features a wide array of essays by an international team of scholars from a number of different academic disciplines, each one shedding new light on aspects of Horace's poetry and its later reception in literature, art and scholarship from antiquity to the present day. In particular, the collection seeks to investigate the fortunes of 'Horace' both as a literary personality and as a uniquely varied textual corpus of enormous importance to western culture. The poems shape an author to suit his poetic aims; readers reshape that author to suit their own aesthetic, social and political needs. Studying these various versions of Horace and their interaction illuminates the author, his poetry and his readers.

Download or read book Horace s Iambic Criticism written by Timothy S. Johnson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-11-11 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By examining the relationship of the iambic tradition with ritual, this book studies how Horace’s Epodes are more than partisan (consolidating Octavian’s victory by projecting hostilities onto powerless others) but a meta-partisan project (forming fractured entities into a diversified unity).

Book Horace Between Freedom and Slavery

Download or read book Horace Between Freedom and Slavery written by Stephanie McCarter and published by University of Wisconsin Pres. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Roman transition from Republic to Empire in the first century B.C.E., the poet Horace found his own public success in the era of Emperor Augustus at odds with his desire for greater independence. In Horace between Freedom and Slavery, Stephanie McCarter offers new insights into Horace's complex presentation of freedom in the first book of his Epistles and connects it to his most enduring and celebrated moral exhortation, the golden mean. She argues that, although Horace commences the Epistles with an uncompromising insistence on freedom, he ultimately adopts a middle course. She shows how Horace explores in the poems the application of moderate freedom first to philosophy, then to friendship, poetry, and place. Rather than rejecting philosophical masters, Horace draws freely on them without swearing permanent allegiance to any—a model for compromise that allows him to enjoy poetic renown and friendships with the city's elite while maintaining a private sphere of freedom. This moderation and adaptability, McCarter contends, become the chief ethical lessons that Horace learns for himself and teaches to others. She reads Horace's reconfiguration of freedom as a political response to the transformations of the new imperial age.
