A modern encounter with a classical voice. The Carmina Of Caius Valerius Catullus invites you to the shadowed immediacy of love, wit, and vexed desire, voiced in crisp Latin lyric poetry that still hums with contemporary resonance.

A modern encounter with a classical voice. The Carmina Of Caius Valerius Catullus invites you to the shadowed immediacy of love, wit, and vexed desire, voiced in crisp Latin lyric poetry that still hums with contemporary resonance. This carefully chosen edition gathers Catullus's vivid, compact poems into a roman poetry collection that travels from ardent romancelines to sly silver of satire. The verses enjoy a brisk energy-intimate confessions, sharp friendships, and deft critiques of power and fame-while offering a revealing map of life in the late roman republic. For general readers and student latin studies alike, the collection provides accessible entry points to a world where personal feeling meets biting social observation, and where the poet's glimpses of society illuminate broader themes in classical literature. Historically, Catullus's influence radiates through latin poetry and beyond, shaping later voices and setting a benchmark for precision, texture, and emotional honesty. This edition honours that lineage with fidelity and fresh clarity, preserving the music of the original while ensuring modern readability. It will appeal to casual readers drawn to natural, memorable verse, and to classic-literature collectors seeking a thoughtfully curated, culturally significant artefact. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
