贺拉斯(生于公元前65年)的诗歌丰富多彩,其关注点在公共和私人问题、城市和乡村环境、斯多葛和伊壁鸠鲁思想之间移动。这里是一个新的勒布古典图书馆版本的伟大的罗马诗人的颂歌和Epodes,流体翻译面临的拉丁文。贺拉斯为自己是第一个写抒情诗的罗马人而感到自豪。作为典范,他转向希腊抒情诗,尤其是阿尔凯乌斯、萨福和品达的诗歌;但他的诗歌以罗马背景为背景。他的四部诗集涵盖了各种各样的情绪和主题。有些是公开的诗歌,坚持勇气,忠诚和虔诚的传统价值观;还有对神的赞美诗。但大多数颂歌都是关于私人主题的:责备或建议朋友;谈论爱情和悲伤的情况,通常很有趣。贺拉斯的17个epodes,他称之为iambi,也是罗马文学的创新。像颂歌一样,它们的灵感来源于一种希腊模式:7世纪阿基洛库斯的伊玛目诗歌。爱情和政治问题是常见的主题;这里的基调通常是讽刺讽刺。“在他的语言中,他是胜利的冒险者,”昆提良说贺拉斯;这个新的翻译反映了他不同的声音。
The poetry of Horace (born 65 bc) is richly varied, its focus moving between public and private concerns, urban and rural settings, Stoic and Epicurean thought. Here is a new Loeb Classical Library edition of the great Roman poet's Odes and Epodes, a fluid translation facing the Latin text. Horace took pride in being the first Roman to write a body of lyric poetry. For models he turned to Greek lyric, especially to the poetry of Alcaeus, Sappho, and Pindar; but his poems are set in a Roman context. His four books of odes cover a wide range of moods and topics. Some are public poems, upholding the traditional values of courage, loyalty, and piety; and there are hymns to the gods. But most of the odes are on private themes: chiding or advising friends; speaking about love and amorous situations, often amusingly. Horace's seventeen epodes, which he called iambi, were also an innovation for Roman literature. Like the odes they were inspired by a Greek model: the seventh-century imabic poetry of Archilochus. Love and political concerns are frequent themes; here the tone is generally that of satirical lampoons. "In his language he is triumphantly adventurous," Quintilian said of Horace; this new translation reflects his different voices.
