About the book:
One of antiquity's great lyric poets on mortality, wine, friendship, and the art of living well.
Carpe diem is his, and he meant it more seriously than the posters suggest.
This is a 1902 Unit Library edition presenting the Odes in Latin and English on facing pages, with the English translation by Philip Francis D.D., first published in 1747.
The Latin text is based on Müller's edition, edited by W.H.D. Rouse of Christ's College Cambridge.
A dual-language edition this old over 120 years with an 18th-century translation is a genuine bibliographic object, not just a reading copy.
Includes an Index of Names.
For the collector, the Latin student, or the reader who wants Horace in both languages at once.
Condition:
Good secondhand condition.
Small insctiption on first (blank) page from 1909.
