Seller's Description:
Very Good+ in Very Good-dust jacket. 0674990374. Minor shelfwear. Pages lightly tanned. Scholar's name to ffep (D. Gerber). DJ is price-clipped. Dustjacket has edgewear with chipping and small tears.; Loeb Classical Library No. 33; 431 pages; Horace (b. 65 B. C. ) claims the lyric poetry of Sappho and Alcaeus as models for his celebrated odes. His four books cover a wide range of moods and topics: friendship is the dominant theme of about a third of the poems; a great many deal with love and amorous situations, often amusingly; others deal with patriotic and political themes. The seventeen epodes, which Horace called iambi, were also inspired by a Greek model: the seventh century iambic poetry of Archilochus. As in the odes, love and politics are frequent themes; some of the epodes also display mockery and ridicule, of a harsher variety than we find in Horace's satires.
