Résumé ou Introduction
“The friendship between Horace and Maecenas quickly attained an almost mythical status as the ideal relationship of poet and patron.” With these words Barbara Pavlock (B.Pavlock, Horace’s invitation poems to Maecenas: gifts to a patron, in: Ramus 11 (1982), 79) starts her article about the invitation poems of Horace, and for a long time it really seemed to most of the people that this relationship was an ideal friendship, but this point of view changed within the last decades.
This paper is giving a short view on the relationship between Maecenas and Horace from the Horacian point of view, extracted from the Odes I – III of Horace.
