This course tells the story of the life of the Roman poet known to us as Horace. His full name was Quintus Horatius Flaccus, but in this course we call him simply Quintus. Part I tells the story of his childhood and early schooling in his home-town, Venusia, in south-east Italy. In Part II his father takes him to Rome for his secondary education; after this he goes to. university in Athens, but when civil war breaks out he leaves university to join the a rmy. In Part Ill , when his side in the war is defeated, he returns to Italy, begins to write poetry, and eventually becomes one of the leading poets of his time and a friend of the emperor Augustus. You will learn more about his life in the first background essay (pp. 11 - 12).
We have chosen the life of Horace as the subject of this book both because he was an interesting person who tells us a lot about himself in his poetry, and because he lived through one of the most exciting periods of Roman history; in his time he saw the assassination of Julius Caesar, the destruction of the old republic and the establishment of the empire.
The story is told in Latin, the language of the Romans; it was spoken throughout the Roman empire, which stretched from Syria in the east to Britain in the north. Latin is one of a large family of languages to which English and nearly all European languages belong, as well as Indian and Persian. Anglo-Saxon, from which
English is directly descended, is.only distantly related to Latin and is not much like it. But about one half of the words in modern English are not Anglo-Saxon in origin, but borrowed from Latin at various stages of our history.
