Abstract

In a treatise on the philosophy of Horace it is necessary to discuss the following problems: 1) What did Horace know of the different philosophical systems? 2) To what extent do the works of Horace contain references to philosophy? 3) To what philosophy does he refer? 4) To which school did he claim to be an adherent? 5) What is his system of ethics? In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to take first a survey of the development of Greek philosophy.
