Book Horace  Satires Book II

    Book Details:
  • Author : Horace
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2021-02-25
  • ISBN : 100904026X
  • Pages : 368 pages

Download or read book Horace Satires Book II written by Horace and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The satires explored in this volume are some of the trickiest poems of ancient Rome's trickiest poet. Horace was an ironist, sneaky smart, and prone to hiding things under the surface. His Latin is dense and difficult. The challenges posed by these satires are especially acute because their voices, messages, and stylistic habits are many, and their themes range from the poet's anxieties about the limits of satiric free speech in the first poem to the ridiculous excesses of an outrageously overdone dinner party in the last. For students working at intermediate and advanced levels of Latin, this book makes the satires of Horace's second book of Sermones readable by explaining difficult issues of grammar, syntax, word-choice, genre, period, and style. For scholars who already know these poems well, it offers fresh insights into what satire is, and how these poems communicate as uniquely 'Horatian' expressions of the genre.

Book Satire and the Threat of Speech

Download or read book Satire and the Threat of Speech written by Catherine M. Schlegel and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2005-12-29 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his first book of Satires, written in the late, violent days of the Roman republic, Horace exposes satiric speech as a tool of power and domination. Using critical theories from classics, speech act theory, and others, Catherine Schlegel argues that Horace's acute poetic observation of hostile speech provides insights into the operations of verbal control that are relevant to his time and to ours. She demonstrates that though Horace is forced by his political circumstances to develop a new, unthreatening style of satire, his poems contain a challenge to our most profound habits of violence, hierarchy, and domination. Focusing on the relationships between speaker and audience and between old and new style, Schlegel examines the internal conflicts of a notoriously difficult text. This exciting contribution to the field of Horatian studies will be of interest to classicists as well as other scholars interested in the genre of satire.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Juvenal: Satires III, X, XIII, and XIV (as Read in the Entrance-Course of Trinity College): From the d104 of Ruperti; With Copious English Notes, a Discourse on Roman Satire, &C. &C They appear to be merely parodies, wherein philosophers of every class, and sublime expressions of Homer are turned to ridicule. Let us now turn our attention to Roman satire. From the loci classici in Virg. Georg. 2. 385. and Hor. Epis. 2. 139, seqq., it appears that, in the printitive ages, festivals in honour of Bacchus were solemnized each year by the country people at harvest home, with almost the same attendant circumstances as among the Greeks; that the same kind of loose acting was performed throughout the villages; that they sang hymns in honour of the rural deities; that they formed little images, or rather masks of bark (oscilla) as images of Bacchus which they hung up on trees; that being moved to and fro by the winds, abundant fertility might be dispensed over the fields (by the agency of the god). Moreover they covered their faces with these, and being thus masked and flushed with wine, they used to utter mutual satirical invectives in verses extemporaneous, and necessarily unpolished. These were the Saturnii versus (i.e. prisci ac rudes), called also Fescennini, from Fescennia a town of Etruria. The verses were not bound by metrical laws, but yet they were not totally devoid of rhythm. This species of verse was used long and often in Rome, in festal periods and at other solemnities, particularly at weddings and triumphs. See Hor. Epis. 2. 1, 146, where the law alluded to is the 7th of the 12 Tables Si qui pipulo (publice vel convicio) occcntasit (al. actitavisset) carmenve condisit, quod infamiam faxit agitiumve alteri, fuste ferito. The great libertv which the writers of the Fescennine verses took with the names of even virtuous characters was the cause of the enactment of this law. Evantlzius. From the Fescennine verses the dramatic satire of the Romans sprung, and afterwards the didactic. We are taught this by Livy in his account of the origin of scenic entertainments in Rome (Book 7. ch. 2).As it is important that the student should read Livys statement, we shall be pardoned for giving a translation of the passage; the version is Bakers. The pestilence continuing during both this and the following year (i.e. A.U.C.300 and 301), in which Caius Sulpicius Peticus and Caius Licinius Stolo were consuls; nothing memorable was transacted, only that, for the purpose of soliciting the favour of the gods, the Lectisternium was performed the third time since the building of the city (the first took places. 17. c.356, and on the same account. Ruperti). But the disorder receiving no alleviation. either from human wisdom or divine aid, the strength of the people's minds became almost overpowered by superstition, and it is said. that on this occasion, among other devices for appeasing the wrath of heaven, scenic plays were introduced; a new thing to a. warlike people, for hitherto there had been only the shows of the circus. However, this kind of performance was, as in general all beginnings are, but a trifling matter, and even that borrowed from abroad. Actors were sent for from Etruria, who, though without any poetical language, or any gestures correspondent to such language, yet regulating their motions by the measures of the music, exhibited, in the Tuscan manner, something far from ungraceful.
