A Translation and Interpretation of Horace’s Iambi

Andy Law first read Horace as a student of Niall Rudd. Those tutorials left an indelible mark. Almost half a century later Andy’s A Translation and Interpretation of Horace’s Sermones Book I (2021) was published by Cambridge Scholars. Between these two Horatian moments was a career of over forty years as a communications and business advisor to companies worldwide. Named an Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year, Andy was profiled by the Harvard Business Review, chaired plenary sessions at Davos and advised in Downing Street. He has authored seven books. Open Minds (1998), a Daily Telegraph Business Book of the Year, was described by Theodore Zeldin as a “20th-century equivalent of John Foxe’s Book of Martyrs (1563), a business book which is literature”. Work and Days (2019) was described as “surprising, refreshing and empowering” by Anna Marmodoro, Professor of Philosophy and Chair of Metaphysics, Durham University (UK) and Associate Member of the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Oxford (UK).
