Odes: With the Latin Text (Modern Library Classics)

Timeless meditations on the subjects of wine, parties, birthdays, love, and friendship, Horaceâ€™s Odes, in the words of classicist Donald Carne-Ross, make the â€œcommonplace notable, even luminous.â€ This edition reproduces the highly lauded translation by James Michie. â€œFor almost forty years,â€ poet and literary critic John Hollander notes, â€œJames Michieâ€™s brilliant translations of Horace have remained fresh as well as strong, and responsive to the varying lights and darks of the originals. It is a pleasure to have them newly available.â€
