Hardback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Thirteen Satires of Juvenal: With English Notes The character of Horace's mind was such, that his own experience and the events of his life come naturally into his writings, and a tolerably full and accurate biography of that poet has been gathered from his own pen. His poems form a gallery of contemporary portraits, including his own picture in every stage of life. It is not so with J uvenal. He had to deal with vice and folly more than a century older than the vice and folly of Horace's day, and a tyranny which Horace never witnessed. The playful personalities of Horace did not suit J uvenal's subject, and would not have represented his way of viewing it; nor did they suit the severe and defiant Spirit in which he approached it. The consequence is that the traces of J uvenal's life in his Satires are very slight. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
