Excerpt from Horace, the Historical and Political Odes: With Introduction and Notes In the second volume of the Classical Review are some highly interesting papers by Dr. Theobald Ziegler, professor in the University of Strasbourg, on Classical Education in Germany. In one of these Professor Ziegler remarks: Of coursea good teacher does not take them (the Odes of Horace) in Horace's order, but arranges them according to their contents I must confess that I had read the Odes with my classes at school and college for many years without so arranging them, and that I had not even heard of any such method being followed. It would indeed have been often impossible to do so, because the portions set for examination always consist of one or more of the Books.
