      The Books of Catullus
    • Lyrika G. Valeria Catulla vyrůstá z lyriky řecké a zprvu v ní cele tkví. Má její charakteristickou linii: vroucnost hloubky a čistotu formy i slova. Záhy však autor proniká touto první fází formální i obsahové závislosti a dává růst své vlastní umělecké osobnosti. Je básník kladu i negace: lásky a nenávisti, víry a zoufalství, radosti a bolesti, štvaný rozporem vlastního nitra.
