First published in 1865, Yonge adapts and improves upon previous texts and translations to deliver a full comprehensive and detailed analysis of the works by the Roman poet, Quintus Horatius Flaccus, better known as ‘Horace’ in the Anglosphere. This edition offers not only translations of the original Latin texts but also offers an insight into the historical context of these works, Horace’s own personal life and even Victorian society’s fascination with Classical Civilisation.
