A Commentary on Horace: Odes Book III
Nisbet, R. G. M. (, formerly Corpus Christi Professor of Latin Language and Literature, University of Oxford)
This Commentary takes critical account of recent writing on the Odes. It deals with detailed questions of interpretation, and shows how Horace combined the tact of a court-poet with a humane individualism, and how he wrote within a literary tradition without losing a highly personal voice. Though the book is not intended for beginners, the editors aim throughout at clarity.
