Title: Horace: Poet on a Volcano Author: Peter Stothard Narrator: Kevin Kemp Format: mp3 Length: 8 hrs and 25 mins Release date: 05-13-25 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 1 rating Genres: Rome Publisher's Summary: Quintus Horatius Flaccus (65-8 BCE) wrote some of ancient Rome's greatest poetry, melding languages and cultures with youthful ideals and a realist's recognition of the dictatorial world around him. Horace is famed for his fine phrases, lyric sex, and guidance on how to live, but he was a poet maddened by war, and many of his most self-revealing poems have rarely been seen. He could be sublime and obscene, amusing and abusive, a model of moderation and anything but.
