A Commentary on Horace's Epodes
Watson, Lindsay C. (, Senior Lecturer in Classics at the University of Sydney)
Horace's "Epodes" reflect as no other work of Latin poetry does the crisis afflicting Rome in the 40s and 30s BC, as it passed from a republican to a monarchical system. In its 17 poems, various bogeys which were perceived as instrumental to societal breakdown are outspokenly attacked.
