The Roman Poets of the Augustan Age: Horace and the Elegiac Poets

A very complete record of Horace, his life, his thoughts and his works in the first half of the book, followed by the Elegiac Poets. William Young Sellar is the author of Roman Poets of the Republic. From 1853-1859 he was an assistant professor at the University of St. Andrew, and from 1859-1863 was Greek Professor at that university. In 1863, to the great regret of St. Andrews, Mr. Sellar went to Edinburgh to fill the Chair of Latin.
