Odes, Elegies and Epigrams (Everyman's Library POCKET POETS)

The great Roman poets of Antiquity wrote some of the most compelling lyrical poetry of all time, to be read privately but also on occasion to be performed publicly on the field of victory, at a banquet or at a public festival. This edition is illustrated with the magnificent classical engravings of Johannes Pine's great edition of Horace of 1737.
