Book Overview
The Odes and Epodes of Horace, Volume 1, presents a metrical translation into English of the timeless works of Quintus Horatius Flaccus, more commonly known as Horace. This collection offers a rich experience of classical Roman poetry, meticulously rendered for the modern reader by Robert Lytton. Horace's Odes are celebrated for their lyrical beauty, philosophical insights, and masterful use of language. The Epodes, characterized by their diverse themes and sharp wit, provide a fascinating counterpoint. This translation seeks to capture the spirit and artistry of the original Latin, making Horace's profound reflections on life, love, politics, and morality accessible to a new audience. A valuable addition to any collection of classical literature, this edition invites readers to rediscover the enduring relevance of Horace's verse.
