Pages: 80-96
Keywords: Commentaires - Commenti - Commentaries, Héritage - Fortuna - Legacy
Description: Horace's advice to Julius Florus in Ep. 1, 3 is modelled on the kind of guidance Cicero offers in Off. 2, 45. Cicero recommends military distinction, association with the right people, and oratory as paths for success. Horace accordingly praises Florus for his accomplishments in these respects, and for his poetry, but advises him to exchange his harsh ambition (frigida curarum fomenta, 1, 3, 26) for greater modestia and sapientia.
