Horace. - FRAENKEL, E.,
KORTE INHOUD
'Indeed this is probably the weightiest book on Horace that has yet appeared. No one could put it down without feeling greatly enriched in knowledge and understanding. Fraenkel?s acquaintance with forgotten as well as recent literature on Horace, and his grasp of the history of scholarschip, is formidable. His appreciative commentaries, for instance on the Journey to Brundisium and the Epistle to Augustus, and his appraisal of such delicate matters as Horace?s attitude to the gods, are models of their kind. The footnotes are a treasure of recondite knowledge and pithy obiter dicta. The book is beautifully produced, with very few misprints.' (L.P. WILKINSON in The Classical Review (New Series), 1959, p.36). From the library of the late Prof. W. Geoffrey Arnott.
