The first\u003cbr\u003e century BC is represented by Lucretius and Catullus, the Augustan era by\u003cbr\u003e Virgil, Horace and Ovid, and the Silver age by Juvenal and Martial. Passages\u003cbr\u003e are chosen for their own intrinsic interest - Ovid on Romulus and Remus, \u003cbr\u003e Juvenal on the dangers of Rome at night, the sheild of Aeneas from Virgil\u003cbr\u003e Aeneid VIII; they cover a wide variety of genres and styles - both\u003cbr\u003e Satires and Odes of Horace, elegiacs from the Fasti and hexameters from the\u003cbr\u003e Metamorphoses of Ovid. There are extensive notes on language and content, an\u003cbr\u003e introduction on metre and a full vocabulary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eberhard Christoper Kennedy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1853995274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781853995279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.29h x 4.94w x 0.59d","brand":"Eberhard Christoper Kennedy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125490970879,"sku":"9781853995279","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1f23db6b-4586-4dd4-b1bf-9ed069586e97.jpg?v=1687442932","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/two-centuries-of-roman-poetry-arthur-robin-davis-9781853995279","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
