Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Satires and Epistles of Horace This book is intended for use in the class-room. There are therefore many things in the notes which the advanced Latin scholar may pass over. But the editor has derived so much advantage from editions of the Classics in which the notes reminded him in particular connections of things which in general he knew before, that he has not inquired so much whether a thing was likely to be known, as whether it was likely to be thought of in the connection. The notes are intended not so much to aid the student in the study of the Latin language as in the study of Horace, - what he meant, how he felt, and what prompted him to write as he did. In accordance with the plan of the "College Series," the notes are put at the bottom of the page to facilitate reference. The editor is persuaded that college students sufficiently advanced to undertake Horace, ought no longer to get and recite lessons, but to study the literature, and understand and enjoy it. If the editor's suggestions enable anybody to do this, his purpose will have been accomplished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Satires and Epistles of Horace: With Notes and Excursus Such then is my commentary on the Satires and Epistles of Horace, and when to it are added those on the Bucolics and Georgics of Virgil and on the Fasti of Ovid, it will be seen that I have endeavoured to illustrate all the more difficult poetry of the Augustan age. Of my commentary on this last most curious and valuable poem, those who have only seen it in the first edition can judge but very inadequately, as that was executed in a hurryand under most unfavourable circumstances. In its new and re modeled form it is, if I deceive not myself, perfectly qua lified to take its place along with my Horace and Virgil.

Download or read book The Epodes Satires and Epistles of Horace Classic Reprint written by Francis Howes and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Epodes, Satires, and Epistles of Horace In fending the following translation into the world, the Editor regrets that it should share the common fate of posthumous publications - that of incompleteness. Happily the deficiency that remains to be supplied to complete a Translation of the works of Horace, consists in that portion of them, the Odes, of which English versifications may be generally thought to be already sufficiently abundant. Yet it is scarcely probable that the Author, had his life and health been spared, would have suffered so (comparatively) small a portion of his arduous task to remain unexecuted. Touching the degree of success which may be thought to attend the present endeavour to convey an accurate perception of the sense and spirit of Horace to the English reader, the Editor is well aware that no observations of his own could obtain a verdict not commanded by the intrinsic merit of the work. He only asks for that indulgence, which is due to every work that lacks the finishing stroke of the hand that first projected it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Satires, Epistles, and Art of Poetry of Horace: Translated Into English Verse Istic of a particular type of mind, we must expect to meet with still less unanimity of judgment. The wits of the Restoration answered the question very differently from the way in which it would be answered now; even Pope and his contemporaries would not be accepted as quite infallible arbiters of social and colloquial refinement in an age like the present. Whether Horace is grave or gay in his familiar writings, his charm depends almost wholly on his manner: a modern who attempts to repro duce him runs an imminent risk first of losing all charm whatever, secondly of missing completely that individuality of attractiveness which makes the charm of Horace unlike the charm of any one else.

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.
