Horace has long been revered as the supreme lyric poet of the Augustan Age. Born the son of a freed slave in southern rural Italy, he rose to become one of the most celebrated poets in Rome. This book spells out how the poet expresses values and traditions that remain unchanged in the deepest strata of Italian character two thousand years later.
