Opis

Covering a wide range of topics including the iambic tradition and aspects of gender, this collection of essays on the Epodes by new and established scholars seeks to overturn the work's ill-famed reputation and to reassert its place as a valid and valued member of Horace's literary corpus.

Recenzje

This volume will find a wide readership base among enthusiasts of Greek and Roman iambics, Horatian studies, and Augustan literature, culture, and history. With translations provided for all Greek and Latin text and usable indices, the volume is accessible to specialists and advanced students alike ... Many readers will find the contributions inspiring and may even be encouraged to pick up the Epodes again, or perhaps for the first time.
