Items related to Horace Odes: A Selection
This is the endorsed publication from OCR and Bloomsbury for the Latin A-Level (Group 4) prescription of Horace's Odes, giving full Latin text, commentary and vocabulary for Odes 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.6. A detailed introduction covers the prescribed text to be read in English, placing the poems in their Roman literary context.
Horace was the finest lyric poet in Latin and these four of the six 'Roman Odes', written in the early years of the rule of the first Roman emperor Augustus, show his poetic power at full stretch. They discuss issues of political and moral concern for the regime and its citizens with the clarity of a deeply personal and unique voice, making clever use of mythology and literary allusion and coining some of the most resonant phrases in the Latin language.

About the Author:
John Godwin was for many years Head of Classics at Shrewsbury School, UK. His publications include Ovid: Metamorphoses III An Extract (Bloomsbury, 2013) and Ovid Heroides: A Selection (Bloomsbury, 2016), both text editions for OCR set texts.
Review:
[Godwin] is encouraging the able students to think for themselves, to beware the trap of thinking that there must be a `right' answer, and to help them see the study of Latin literature as not simply knowing how the words are to be translated, but as a stimulating aesthetic and intellectual adventure. And all this in barely over one hundred pages. It is a veritable multum in parvo. * Classics for All Reviews *
