Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The School of Pantagruel: An Essay "Ovid´s a rake, as half his verses show him, Anacreon´s morals are a still worse sample, Catullus scarcely has a decent poem, I don´t think Sappho´s Ode a good example, Although Longinus tells us there is no hymn Where the sublime soars forth on wings more ample. But Virgil´s songs are pure, except that horrid one Beginning with ´Formosum Pastor Corydon.´ "Lucretius´ irreligion is too strong For early stomachs to prove wholesome food; I can´t help thinking Juvenal was wrong, Although no doubt his real intent was good, For speaking out so plainly in his song, So much indeed as to be downright rude. And then what proper person can be partial To all those nauseous epigrams of Martial?" Don Juan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
