Horace

Autor Horace Editat de Edward P. Morris
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 1938
Horace, recognized as the greatest of Roman lyric poets of the Augustan Age is perhaps best remembered for his Odes, which constitute the height of his literary achievement. However, the Satires and Epistles, which span his life as a poet, are not to be neglected. Horace began his literary career as a writer of satires, which fitted his personality as an acute observer of men. Restriction to the traditional form of satire established by Lucilius did not stifle Horace's originality. He adapted the heroic measure, very harsh and rude in Lucilius, to fit this theme, thus creating a new art form, the sermo. The editor has provided introductions to the Satires and Epistles, tracing the history of both art forms. The carefully edited text and well-chosen notes tastefully preserve the full flavor of Horace's pungent social criticism in the Satires and his gentler but more serious reflection in the Epistles.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
The Odes of Horace are the cornerstone of lyric poetry in the Western world. This edition of the Odes was first published in the outstanding 'red Macmillan' series, in which it finally replaced the late nineteenth century edition of T.E. Page.

Quinn's edition is designed to meet the need for a modern approach to students in upper school and university. He begins with the assumption that Horace is a major poet, and that the Odes should be recognised and enjoyed as poetry. The commentary provides linguistic aid at the appropriate level but also attempts to reconstruct the thesis upon which each poem rests, and to interpret it as a structural and poetic whole for the attentive and responsive reader.

Recenzii

'Gowers is a brilliant critic … Any sentence chosen at random would illustrate her critical perceptiveness and penetration, and the deftness, liveliness and sheer interest to be found in the way she writes.' Exemplaria Classica
'Emily Gowers' new Green and Yellow commentary does far more than bring things up to date. It innovates, and opens pathways for fresh interrogation. By combining the best of the solid philological and historical gains made by the great nineteenth- and twentieth-century commentaries in French, German and Italian, with the best of recent cultural and literary-critical scholarship (primarily in English), Gowers has managed to produce something that the field has not, in fact, ever seen: an impressively full and thought-provoking commentary in English on the first book of Horace's Sermones … Gowers' points of emphasis are well chosen and well balanced … [her] note on 'numerus'… is itself worth the price of the book … outstanding …' Kirk Freudenburg, The Journal of Roman Studies
'Everyone who reads satire comes to it with different interests, and Gowers accordingly gives space to a variety of topics and avenues of investigation in her essays and notes … She is particularly talented at exposing the relationship between the anecdotal poems 7-9 and unpacking the various messages that are embedded in Horace's dense verse. These pieces reward readers with a tantalizing … glimpse into the historical poet's lived experience.' Jayne Knight, Mnemosyne
