Book Description:
|
Offers a detailed study of a single poem - Horace's Odes 1.9, often called "The Soracte Ode" after the mountain named in its second line. Lowell Edmunds is the first scholar to apply developments in literary theory from outside the field of classics to a discussion of the ode. Specifically, he uses Hans Robert Jauss's essay on Baudelaire's "Spleen (II)" as a model for his study.
