Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Select Poems of Catullus: With Introductions, Notes, and Appendices ´Venias edera juvenalia cinctus Tempora cum Calvo, docte Catulle, tuo.´ Everlasting gratitude is due to the notary of Verona who rescued from the dust the sole manuscript, so long lost, of his compatriot Catullus; for, possessing this, we possess a diary vividly picturing the life of Rome, just before it was overcast with the grey monotone of Imperialism, in the colours which it wore to the feelings of a young Republican, man of the world, and poet. Catullus had many friends who lived and wrote like himself; but their works met the fate of the authors, and perished before their time. It is most fortunate for us, therefore, that one has escaped, by a hairs-breadth, the general mortality; and it is most fortunate that the survivor is Catullus.
