Reviews
Students of poetry who are looking to find out more about Horace as an artist will find much to appreciate here ... Miller surpasses this reader's expectations of what a book in this genre purports to do. The coherent interpretive thread of irony is a pleasant surprise. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *
The well-known Latinist Paul Allen Miller here presents a lively and stimulating introduction to Horace, one of the great short-form poets in world literature, in all his richness and complexity. -- Stephen Harrison, Professor of Latin Literature, University of Oxford, UK
