About this edition

A complete edition of the surviving works of Quintus Horatius Flaccus (65–8 BC), translated in a single voice with the Latin alongside.

What's here

Everything Horace left — the Odes, the Epodes, the Satires, the Epistles, the Carmen Saeculare, and the Ars Poetica — translated from the Latin and presented in order. Each work carries a headnote, an optional Latin-parallel toggle, and an apparatus of named-entity glossary and cross-references.

From the Latin

Every translation was produced by reading the Latin text directly, not by copying or adapting any prior edition. The Latin comes from open scholarly sources.

How to use this

The Works index lists the works by kind; open any to read. The chronology places Horace's life and poems on a timeline. The glossary is the named-entity registry — every person, place, and deity the poems name. Search spans the whole corpus.

Citation and reuse
