The Horace Trail
The Horace Trail is an amazing travelogue on disk that manages to document all of the significant locations that Horace lived in, visited, or mentioned in his poetry. It is a truly unique collection of photos, supported by textual citations and other bits of information that will certainly assist any students of Horace in creating a life-like impression of a man who lived over two millenia ago and was the pre-eminent poet of his age. An excellent companion to the Oxford Latin Course. The CD divides Horace’s life and work into: The Early Years, Journeys in the East, the Trip to Brundisium, Maecenas and Augustus, and Horace’s Italy. There is a handy glossary of names and places for reference, and all 400 images used in the program are provided in JPEG format for use in class projects,presentations, and web sites (with proper credit given).
