Albius Tibullus Knihy

Poprvé u nás v celistvosti přeložený soubor Tibullových elegií po nábězích jdoucích od 18. stol. přes Kočího, Douchu, Vondráčka, Krska, k Hrubému, Vaňornému, Stolovskému a Fr. Douchovi. Hlavním námětem této ještě živé poesie je láska a touha po štěstí a míru. Porozumění pro práci rolníků, odpor proti bažení po statcích a proti moci, vedoucí k válce.

The collection showcases the exquisite erotic poetry of Catullus, dedicated to his beloved Lesbia, capturing both the emotional depth and sharp wit of the original texts. Horace Gregory's translation preserves the lyrical beauty and satirical brilliance of Catullus while making it accessible for both students and casual readers. This edition features the Latin text alongside the English translation, complemented by twelve full-page illustrations by Zhenya Gay, enhancing the reading experience.

Lyrika G. Valeria Catulla vyrůstá z lyriky řecké a zprvu v ní cele tkví. Má její charakteristickou linii: vroucnost hloubky a čistotu formy i slova. Záhy však autor proniká touto první fází formální i obsahové závislosti a dává růst své vlastní umělecké osobnosti. Je básník kladu i negace: lásky a nenávisti, víry a zoufalství, radosti a bolesti, štvaný rozporem vlastního nitra.

Výbor z milostné lyriky tří římských básníků, jimž láska a žena byly nejmocnějším a téměř výhradním pramenem inspirace.

Giovane amante della matura, bellissima Lesbia (alter ego della patrizia romana Clodia), Catullo (87-54 a.C.) ancor oggi famoso per l'eleganza deliziosa ed essenziale delle sue composizioni che raccontano gli alti e i bassi della sua storia d'amore. Passione, gelosia, sofferenza, rabbia, e ancora desiderio, estasi: il poeta descrive l'altalenarsi dei sentimenti sconvolti dall'incostanza della sua donna. Con uno stile essenziale e attualissimo, erede della raffinata civiltà letteraria alessandrina, Catullo ci apre una finestra emozionante sulla società romana di fine repubblica, sui suoi amori e sulla sua sensualità.

The Oxford Classical Texts, or Scriptorum Classicorum Bibliotheca Oxoniensis, are renowned for their reliability and presentation. The series consists of a text without commentary but with a brief apparatus criticus at the front of each page. There are now over 100 volumes, representing the greater part of classical Greek and Latin literature. The aim of the series remains that of including the works of all the principal classical authors. Although this has been largely accomplished, new volumes are still being published to fill the remaining gaps, and old editions are being revised in the light of recent research or replaced.
