{"product_id":"the-odes-of-horace-quintus-horatius-flaccus-9781857548518","title":"The Odes of Horace","description":"The first rigorously metrical translation of Horace's classic work in many years, this collection combines a staunch respect for the meaning of the Latin verse, which appears on facing pages, with an ebullient sense of these varied poems as works in English. A line-for-line rendition that finds English equivalents for the original quantitative meters, the volume captures both the tenderness and occasional irascibility of the great Augustan poet. The book also contains useful end notes for those wishing to better understand Horace's allusions and mythological proper names.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Quintus Horatius Flaccus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1857548515\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781857548518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carcanet Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.42h x 5.47w x 0.71d","brand":"Quintus Horatius Flaccus","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486206701823,"sku":"9781857548518","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6a41f9f2-29dc-4eb7-9c18-ee84d872d379.jpg?v=1778054359","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-odes-of-horace-quintus-horatius-flaccus-9781857548518","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
