It is fitting tha we ended our analysis of Catullus's poery with such a sad poem about saying goodbye to a brother. We're saying goodbye to a poet whom I, at least, must admire.
I like the Horace so far, even though it is a bit complex. I feel so sorry for Horace; who wants to be stalked? Poets, gladiators, and some actors were the big stars of their days, so I find it funny that we haven't been able to evolve that much over the years. Modern celebrities can't walk down the street in peace either.
Enjoy your week all!!
