Dans les odes érotiques, Horace conjugue exaltation de la passion et morale de l'amour, élaborant une poétique tout à fait originale : il chante la puissance et les beautés du désir, mais n'en invite pas moins les jeunes filles à se marier, les matrones à être fidèles, les jeunes gens à se contrôler et les vieilles femmes à renoncer à l'amour. Il rompt ainsi avec la tradition qui le précède, de Sappho aux élégiaques latins en passant par Anacréon, Alcée ou Catulle. Pour comprendre cette intrustion de la morale dans le domaine érotique, il faut tenir compte de tout ce qui fonde la poétique d'Horace dans les Odes : l'ambition de devenir une voix de la cité, la nécessité de dire son adhésion au nouveau régime, mais aussi l'intérêt pour la philosophie, y compris l'Académie, dont on sous-évalue l'importance dans son œuvre. Les enjeux moraux sont cependant indissociables des choix poétiques. C'est en poète qu'Horace se fait philosophe, jouant sur la coïncidence de certains motifs proprement lyriques avec une morale d'origine philosophique. C'est également en poète qu'il réconcilie l'exaltation de la passion et la morale, grâce à un jeu sur les genres, les formes et leur pragmatique. Bénédicte Delignon éclaire la manière dont se tissent, dans les Odes, l'inspiration érotique, le substrat philosophique, le contexte politique et les choix poétiques de celui qui se regarde comme l'inventeur de la lyrique latine.

In laying the groundwork for a fresh and challenging reading of Roman satire, Kirk Freudenburg explores the literary precedents behind the situations and characters created by Horace, one of Rome's earliest and most influential satirists. Critics tend to think that his two books of Satires are but trite sermons of moral reform--which the poems superficially claim to be--and that the reformer speaking to us is the young Horace, a naive Roman imitator of the rustic, self-made Greek philosopher Bion. By examining Horace's debt to popular comedy and to the conventions of Hellenistic moral literature, however, Freudenburg reveals the sophisticated mask through which the writer distances himself from the speaker in these earthy diatribes--a mask that enables the lofty muse of poetry to walk in satire's mundane world of adulterous lovers and quarrelsome neighbors. After presenting the speaker of the diatribes as a stage character, a version of the haranguing cynic of comedy and mime, Freudenburg explains the theoretical importance of such conventions in satire at large. His analysis includes a reinterpretation of Horace's criticisms of Lucilius, and ends with a theory of satire based on the several images of the satirist presented in Book One, which reveals the true depth of Horace's ethical and philosophical concerns.Originally published in 1992.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

Horace's Odes have a surface translucency that belies their rhetorical sophistication. Gregson Davis brings together recent trends in the study of Augustan poetry and critical theory and deftly applies them to individual poems. Exploring four rhetorical strategies--what he calls modes of assimilation, authentication, consolation, and praise and dispraise--Davis produces enlightening, new interpretations of this classic work. Polyhymnia, named after one of the Muses invoked in Horace's opening poem, revises the common image of Horace as a complacent, uncomplicated, and basically superficial singer. Focusing on the artistic persona--the lyric "self" that is constituted in the text--Davis explores how the lyric speaker constructs subtle "arguments" whose building-blocks are topoi, recurrent motifs, and generic conventions. By examining the substructure of lyric argument in groupings of poems sharing similar strategies, the author discloses the major principles that inform Horatian lyric composition.
