Item description from seller

524 S. / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - PREFACE -- The appearance of the two volumes of Marx's Lucilius in 1904 and 1905 and of Cichorius' Untersuchungen zu Lucilius in 1908 have given us a new Lucilius. To appreciate the truth of this statement it is only necessary to examine the earlier editions of Lucian Mueller, 1872, and of Lachmann, 1876. Not only do we have a text which is the result of long and discriminating study, but we now have fuller information as to the social, political, and aesthetic environment of the Scipionic epoch than we have of any other period of Roman literary history until we reach the Ciceronian and Augustan age. -- These facts are of fundamental importance for all students of Horace's satires, for they at once render necessary a complete revision of judgment in regard to such earlier studies of Lucilian and Horatian relationships as those of M. A. Herwig, Horatius quatenus recte de Lucilio iudicaverit, Halle, 1873; J. J. Iltgen, de Horatio, Lucilii aemulo, Montabauer, 1872; L. Triemel, Veber Lucilius und seine Verhältniss zu Horatius, Kreusn, 1877 (not accessible to me); V. Zawadzski, quatenus in satiris Horatius videatur imitatus esse Lucilium, Erlangen, 1881; R. Y. Tyrell, Horace and Lucilius, Hermathena 4, 355, and Tyrell's Johns Hopkins Lecture on Horace published as chapter 6 in his Latin Poetry, pp. 162-215. The student who peruses these studies to-day will still find much of value. Certain parallels he will reject, others he will accept, and above all he will concern himself not with the question of sporadic instances of verbal imitation arranged in the familiar parallel columns or of the reinterpretation of the thought of individual passages by Horace, but with the much more fundamental question of the relation between the themes of Lucilian satires and those of Horace.
