Gift inscription from 1 editor to R. E. Fantham "For Elaine, with all best wishes, from Denis" to ffep. Some Rubbing to DJ. ; This book is a collection of freshly commissioned essays which covers the whole range of the output of an exceptionally versatile and innovative poet. The essays introduce readers to a variety of critical approaches to Horace and to Latin poetry. All of the essays show close attention to the actual text of Horace, while placing that analysis in a number of different contexts - political, philosophical, historical. The collection sheds light not only on Horace but on the problems of Augustan poetry in general. ; 282 pages; Signed by Editor
Gift inscription from David West to G. P. Goold on ffep. Very Minor shelfwear to book. DJ has minor chipping along top edge. DJ is price-clipped. ; These studies of Latin poetry were commissioned with two main purposes in mind: to encourage a fresh reading of several Latin poets from the time of Catullus to Horace, and to illustrate various, critical approaches to literature. As the literary study of Latin developed in schools and universities there was a proliferation of critical techniques, which were greeted with bewilderment by some, with hostility by others. This book does not attempt to adjudicate finally between them. There can be no one 'prescription' for interpreting poetry; but this does not mean that there are no valid standards of judgement. Criticism must be flexible, imaginative and sympathetic, but it must also be rigourous. To counteract feelings of disorientation the editors tried to provide samples of the best critical work in progress at the time of publication. ; 173 pages; Signed by One Author

British Archaeological Reports (B. A. R. ) British Series 459; 118 pages; The purpose of this book is to put the achievements of Agricolas navy, apparently understated by Tacitus, in their true perspective, with the proposition that the Roman fleet reached the furthest limit of the known world, Thule, or Mainland, Shetland, where it located a convenient anchorage, possibly in Lerwick harbour. To support this theory, firstly the identification of Thule as Shetland during the classical period from the time of Pytheas onwards is investigated through collation of geographical sources, secondly the earliest manuscript of Tacitus Agricola comes under closer scrutiny at the relevant points than ever before, and finally contemporary literature is reassessed to determine the significance of Caledonia and Thule in the Flavian propaganda machine and to suggest the first Roman presence in the Shetland Islands.
