Catullus 3 in Latin with English versions by Lord Byron, Dorothy Parker, and me. Passer at the end of the video lives in my “Roman” courtyard house in the Fez medina. From her I have learned the true meaning of “Odi et amo” (I hate, and I love...
Notes on Catullus 7 & Artwork (in order) This poem is closely connected to Catullus 5. Note the reference to kisses, the repetition of the word nox (night) and the concern about the evil eye. Roman mosaic, 4th century AD, Villa Romana del Ca...
Catullus 8, one of his masterpieces, is about his love affair with Lesbia/Clodia, when she has clearly lost interest. The wonderful 19th century painting of Sappho is certainly anachronistic, but seems a fitting image for the “miserable Lesbia” of...
Catulli Carmen V Ad Lesbiam* Vivamus mea Lesbia, atque amemus, rumoresque senum severiorum omnes unius aestimemus assis! soles occidere et redire possunt: nobis cum semel occidit brevis lux, nox est perpetua una dormienda. da mi basia mi...
Catullus 9 is an expression of joy over the safe return of his friend Veranius from a tour of duty in Spain. Circa 60 BC. Note that kissing close friends and family members was very common among among the Romans. See: The History of Kissing: ...

Catulli Carmen VI ad Flavium (N.B.: carmen VI = carmen sextum NON sextus...mea culpa!) Flavi, delicias tuas Catullo, ni sint illepidae atque inelegantes, velles dicere nec tacere posses. verum nescio quid febriculosi scorti diligis: hoc pu...
Catullus responds to his friend Calvus’ prank gift of a book of miserable poetry. Ni te plus oculis meis amarem, iucundissime Calve, munere isto odissem te odio Vatiniano: nam quid feci ego quidve sum locutus, cur me tot male perderes poet...
Catullus is making fun of an old man married to a much younger woman, a common situation in Rome. He has chosen the Priapean meter, used in songs to the fertility god Priapus, whose intervention seems to be required in this case. The ancient Roma...
Catullus 15: Look, but don’t touch, Aurelius! Commendo tibi me ac meos amores, Aureli. veniam peto pudentem, ut, si quicquam animo tuo cupisti, quod castum expeteres et integellum, conserves puerum mihi pudice, non dico a populo — nihil ve...
