A major reinterpretation of Horace's famous literary manual

For two millennia, the Ars Poetica (Art of Poetry), the 476-line literary treatise in verse with which Horace closed his career, has served as a paradigmatic manual for writers. Rarely has it been considered as a poem in its own right, or else it has been disparaged as a great poet's baffling outlier. Here, Jennifer Ferriss-Hill for the first time fully reintegrates the Ars Poetica into Horace's oeuvre, reading the poem as a coherent, complete, and exceptional literary artifact intimately linked with the larger themes pervading his work.

Arguing that the poem can be interpreted as a manual on how to live masquerading as a handbook on poetry, Ferriss-Hill traces its key themes to show that they extend beyond poetry to encompass friendship, laughter, intergenerational relationships, and human endeavor. If the poem is read for how it expresses itself, moreover, it emerges as an exemplum of art in which judicious repetitions of words and ideas join disparate parts into a seamless whole that nevertheless lends itself to being remade upon every reading.

Establishing the Ars Poetica as a logical evolution of Horace's work, this book promises to inspire a long overdue reconsideration of a hugely influential yet misunderstood poem.

Описание:

Chickie Mae, Marcel the Duck, Madam Goose - and these are just the beginning Along the way this impossible trio is joined by Lavender Lovey, Dooley the Dog, and the handsome Mr. Pig. In fact, it will take a whole barnyard full of whimsical characters to round out the citizens of never-failing-to-entertain LAVENDER HILL FARM.

If ever there was a more eccentric place than this, it could only have been Dorothy's Oz, where it took Wicked Witches, Tin Men, and Wizards to serve up the mayhem, fun, and pure hilarity of what Lavender Hill Farm citizens turn out day after day, page after page.

Jennifer Pahl Otto never disappoints her readers, and once again young and old alike will not be able to stop reading once they turn the first page of this long-awaited book. And talk about bedtime stories? - your child will INSIST on going to sleep an hour early just to get to the next improbable chapter

Whimsical illustrations by Laura B. DeLind add to an already distinguished reputation. Her delightful linocuts provide yet another eccentric lens through which to look at this refreshingly original crew with their entirely madcap adventures.

Longtime Jennifer Pahl Otto followers will not want to miss this new outing of hers. Watch too for Mead-Hill's coming release of this talented story-teller's concert readings of these fabulous stories - great for bedtime and old-fashioned front-of-the-fireplace yarn-spinners everywhere.
