Victorian Horace
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-4725-8390-1 (ISBN)
The book ends with an epilogue suggesting that the framework of study and reception of a classical author such as Horace, so firmly established in the Victorian era, has been modernised and ‘democratised’ in recent years, matching the movement of Classics from a discipline which reinforces traditional and conservative social values to one which can be seen as both marginal and liberal.
Stephen Harrison is Professor of Latin Literature, University of Oxford, UK. He has written extensively on Latin literature and its reception, and is the editor of Living Classics: Greece and Rome in Contemporary Poetry in English (2009) and co-editor of Classics in the Modern World: A Democratic Turn? (2013).
