Les circonstances : depuis 1636, la France et l'Espagne se disputent l'hégémonie européenne dans une guerre sans merci. Les deux États ont la même religion, le même régime politique et social ; les deux rois ennemis sont doublement beaux-frères ; les officiers qui se font face sont souvent proches les uns des autres par le sang ou les alliances, l'amitié, les conceptions de la vie... Ils s'entretuent quand même. Corneille, lui, après deux ans de silence, écrit "Horace" et le dédie à Richelieu.

In the Epistles, Horace reveals himself as a genuine moralist, a subtle observer of life, and a very good writer.
