Carpe Diem By Horace (65- 8 B.C.)

This presentation was created following the Fair Use Guidelines for educational Multimedia. Certain materials are included under the Fair Use exemption of the U.S. Copyright Law. Further use of these materials and this presentation is restricted.

Tone Attitude the writer takes in the piece of literature (poem etc.) Can be humorous, sarcastic, ironic, passionate, sad, or any other number of adjectives to describe emotions.

Maxim A wise and concise saying that has a greater meaning. Carpe diem- “seize the day” Modern interpretation-“Enjoy life fully while you can”

Literary focus Rhyme scheme of “Carpe diem”- rhyming couplets (end-send, all-befall, etc) Tone of the poem is a gentle push to have his friend Leuconoe stop worrying so much about the future- stop trying to guess what tomorrow brings Personification- time is personified by saying it is envious- envy is a “human emotion”

Question chart In lines 1-6 Horace advises his friend Leuconoe to stop trying to predict the future The tone of the last four lines – encouraging and positive but not over the top – does not recommend his friend take life for granted and take risks, but to live each day with good purpose, making the best of each situation

“Eat, drink and be merry?” Horace seems to urge us to not waste time and take life for granted. He urges us to live each day as if it were the last. He urges us to use our time in a good positive way because we are only given so much time on this earth. He urges us not to go to a fortune teller (astrologer) and try to be told what will happen in our future; but he wants us to make our own future by making the most of each moment.
