Born in 65 BC, he was a very clever child, and at the beginning of Part II his father, Flaccus, took him to Rome so that he might have the best education available at the school of Orbilius.

He spent seven years in Rome where he became friends with Marcus Cicero, the son of the great orator and statesman.

After leaving Orbilius school he went on to a rhetorical school.

While he was there, Julius Caesar was murdered (15 March 44 BC); in the ensuing chaos, when civil war threatened, Flaccus decided to send Quintus to Athens to study philosophy and himself returned to Venusia to look after his family.

In Athens, where Quintus studied under Theornnestus, the head of the Academy, he again met Marcus Cicero, who was studying at the other university of Athens, the Lyceum.

In September 44 BC Brutus, the leader of the conspirators who had murdered Julius Caesar, arrived in Athens; he attended lectures on philosophy and made friends with many of the students, whom he persuaded to accompany him to Macedonia (north Greece) where he was assembling an army to resist Antony and Octavian, the adopted son of Julius Caesar.

He became known as Caesar Augustus, the first Roman emperor, and established a dynasty which was to last a hundred years.

Horace meanwhile became one of the leading poets of the time and the friend not only of Maecenas and other important people but of the emperor himself.

He died in 8 BC and could proudly claim: exegi monumentum aere perennius.
