  1. Horace, Odes 3.13: Intertexts and Interpretation.I. -K. Sir - 2023 - Classical Quarterly 73 (2):729-741.
    This article argues that the literary contexts of Horace's Odes 3.13, especially archaic Greek poetry, have been relatively neglected by scholars, who have focussed on identifying the location of the fons Bandusiae and on understanding the significance of the sustained description of the kid sacrifice. This study presents a more holistic interpretation of the ode by exploring Horace's interactions with previously unnoticed (Alcaeus, frr. 45 and 347) and underappreciated (Hes. Op. 582–96) archaic Greek poetic intertexts, which also offer a fresh (...)

  • (1 other version)Horace, Carmen 4.2.53–60: Another Look at the Vitulus.Jacqueline Klooster - 2013 - Classical Quarterly 63 (1):346-352.
    Carmen4.2 is one of the most commented upon of the odes of Horace. It is indeed a complex poem. To summarize roughly: addressing the young poet Iullus Antonius, Horace presents the dangers of emulating Pindar, offering what seems like a lengthy description as well as an approximation of Pindar's own poetic style (1–24). Not as a doomed Icarus imitating the grand Pindaric swan, but in his own preferred mode, like a bee on the banks of Tibur, Horace will continue to (...)

  • Poetry, Praise, and Patronage: Simonides in Book 4 of Horace's "Odes".Alessandro Barchiesi - 1996 - Classical Antiquity 15 (1):5-47.
    The paper aims at reconstructing the influence of Simonides on a contiguous series of Horatian poems . The starting point is provided by the discovery of new Simonidean fragments published by Peter Parsons and by Martin West in 1992. But the research casts a wider net, including the influence of Theocritus on Horace-and of Simonides on Theoocritus-and the simultaneous and competing presence of Pindar and Simonides in late Horatian lyric. The influence of Simonides is seen in specific textual pointers-e.g., a (...)

  • Caligantem nigra formidine lucum: Verg. georg. 4.468, la stele di Philae e un’annotazione degli Scholia Bernensia.Paola Gagliardi - 2022 - Philologus: Zeitschrift für Antike Literatur Und Ihre Rezeption 166 (2):194-209.
    The notice in the Scholia Bernensia about Vergil, Georgics 4.468 that links the name of Gallus to the katabasis of Orpheus can be read as a confirmation of the relation between Vergil’s short poem and the elegiac poet’s work. Significant in this sense is the term formido, very elegant as used by Vergil and maybe part of the poetic lexicon of Gallus, as is perhaps suggested by a passage of the Philae stele.
