Abstract

The objective of this work is to analyse a series of Horatian odes from the first three books, in which, under the appearance of a simple narration of autobiographical data, the poet gradually and progressively builds his lyric figure, establishing a comparison with his Greek lyric models. At the same time, throughout these compositions he develops a definition and characterization of the lyric genre, to finally postulate the need for the figure of Bacchus, the god of furor, of excess, of the breaking of limits. This divinity was to signify, within Horatian poetics, the possibility of broadening and expanding the lyric genre, the capability to go beyond limits and conventional rules in order to recreate the genre in Rome.
