'This book contains ten interpretative articles on odes of Horace (...). There is more attempt here at real literary criticism than is normally found in the interpretation of Horace's Odes, and Pöschl holds that Classical scholars need to learn from the methods evolved for the study of modern literatures. Pöschl's writing is leisurely and discursive, but he has a real capacity for seeing these poems afresh and (...) it makes very pleasant and stimulating reading. (...) The book contains the harvest of a wide reading in ancient literature, and Pöschl contributes much to the mass of 'parallels' in Horation commentaries. The book is admirably printed and produced.'
