A commentary on Horace, Satires I, for Cambridge University Press' Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics series

为了给贺拉斯提供一个新的评论，我为剑桥大学出版社出版的剑桥希腊语和拉丁语经典系列讽刺I。我的目标是使我的笔记对本科生、研究生和高级学者有帮助和启发，并提供比目前英文版更全面、更基于文学的解释(在P.M.Brown、Aris和Phillips于1993年出版的最后一篇评论中)，同时也提供相关的语言和语法帮助。我试图在介绍讽刺作品的革命性观点并应用新的批评方法的书籍和文章中，考虑到最近十年或十五年来发生的荷兰主义批评的爆炸性增长。其中包括：更深入地探索贺拉斯与其他文本的对话以及一般性自我定义的元素；更充分地欣赏讽刺作品I，将其作为一本复杂而有典故的诗集，比如维吉尔的《回忆录》；对贺拉斯声称的自传式真理的怀疑日益增加；对他与已故共和党政治、法律和性别动态的接触的意识。我考虑了诗歌中的总体主题，如视力受损、不同的说话风格、行动自由、涌现和社交。我试图探索这本诗集是一部记录共和党晚期自我塑造的文件，是一本松散意义上的自传，并将贺拉斯解除谦逊武装的立场视为第一个三巨头动荡时期的一种自我保护策略。我想解释某些文学典故的原因，而不是像早先的评论那样简单地引用它们。特别是，我试图在讽刺作品中揭示西塞罗和其他共和党作家隐藏的存在。

To provide a new commentary on Horace, Satires I for the Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics series, to be published by Cambridge University Press. I have aimed to make my notes useful and stimulating to undergraduates, graduate students and senior scholars and to offer a fuller, more literary-based interpretation than is currently available in English (in the last published commentary, by P. M. Brown, Aris and Phillips, 1993), while also giving relevant linguistic and grammatical help. I have tried to take account of the explosion in Horatian criticism that has taken place in the last ten or fifteen years, in books and articles that introduce revolutionary perspectives on the Satires and apply new critical methods. These include: more intense exploration of Horace's dialogue with other texts and the element of generic self-definition; fuller appreciation of Satires I as a complex and allusive poetry book, like, say, Virgil's Eclogues; increasing scepticism about Horace's claims to autobiographical truth; awareness of his engagement with late Republican politics, law and gender dynamics. I have considered overall themes in the poems such as impaired vision, different styles of speaking, freedom of movement, emergence and social encounters. I have tried to explore the idea of the poetry-book as a document of late­ Republican self-fashioning, an autobiography in a looser sense, and to consider Horace's stance of disarming humility as a strategy of self-preservation in the volatile period of the First Triumvirate. I have wanted to explain the reasons for certain literary allusions, rather than simply citing them in the manner of earlier commentaries. In particular, I have tried to bring out the hidden presence of Cicero and other Republican authors in the Satires.
