    Horace

    Horace (65 BCE-8 BCE) was a Roman lyric poet during the reign of Augustus whose major themes included politics, love, philosophy, social role, and poetry. He wrote Satires, Odes, and Epistles as well as Carmen Saeculare and Ars Poetica. Much more is known about Horace than other ancient poets because he included many autobiographical details in his writing. Horace's Epistles later influenced the style of Ovid and Propertius.
