“We are but dust and shadow.”

― Horace

 

Horace was the most important Roman poet during the 1^st-century BC. He composed satires, odes, epistles, and other poetic verses; works that have been referenced and studied for centuries. Horace’s works have yielded some famous quotes that have influenced cultures and societies including “Carpe Diem!” (seize the day) and “Pactum serva” (keep the faith).

 

Horace’s “Satires” were some of his most important works – a vast collection of poems on human emotion and flaws, witchcraft and superstition, mythology, Roman politics, adultery and sexuality, and much more.

 

This 17^th-century edition of Horace’s “Satires” was collected and edited by Daniel Heinsius, published by Elzevier.
