In what questions are scholars of Horace currently interested? What opportunities does this core Roman author offer twenty-first-century critics? This book discusses recent work on Horace by genre, moving from the early Satires through to the late Epistles. It also suggests new scholarly approaches to the poet, providing various ways of interpreting Horace’s background, genre categories, metaphors, and ethics. The target readership consists of scholars new to the field seeking to familiarize themselves swiftly with the formidable bibliography, and of specialists interested in a different perspective on this important but notoriously evasive author.
This book successfully connects archaeology and archaeometallurgy with geoscience and metallurgy. It addresses topics concerning ore deposits, archaeological field evidence of early metal production, and basic chemical-physical principles, as well as experimental ethnographic works on a low handicraft base and artisanal metal production to help readers better understand what happened in antiquity. The book is chiefly intended for scholars and students engaged in interdisciplinary work.
