Two Centuries of Roman Poetry (Paperback, New edition)
Series: Latin Texts

First published by Macmillian in 1964, this volume is designed to
introduce students to a wider range of Latin poetry than they would
encounter in a simple author prescription. The first century BC is
represented by Lucretius and Catullus, the Augustan era by Virgil,
Horace and Ovid, and the Silver age by Juvenal and Martial.
Passages are chosen for their own intrinsic interest - Ovid on
Romulus and Remus, Juvenal on the dangers of Rome at night, the
sheild of Aeneas from Virgil Aeneid VIII; they cover a wide variety
of genres and styles - both Satires and Odes of Horace, elegiacs
from the Fasti and hexameters from the Metamorphoses of Ovid. There
are extensive notes on language and content, an introduction on
metre and a full vocabulary.
