The Complete Odes and Epodes

Hoace`s Odes- allusive and exquisitely crafted poems of politics and the all-too-fleeting pleasure of friendship, love and wine- are without parallel in their influence on European literature. The Epodes, by contrast, are most notable for their coarse abuse and lively obscenity. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
