The Odes And Carmen Saeculare Of Horace is a book written by the ancient Roman poet, Horace. It was originally published in 1865 and features a collection of his most famous works, including his odes and the Carmen Saeculare. The odes are a series of lyrical poems that cover a wide range of themes, from love and friendship to nature and politics. The Carmen Saeculare, on the other hand, is a hymn that Horace wrote to celebrate the secular games held in Rome in 17 BC. The book is considered a masterpiece of Latin literature and has been praised for its elegant style, vivid imagery, and profound insights into the human condition. It is a must-read for anyone interested in classical literature and the works of Horace in particular.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
